That image really looks almost like a dream!!! Congrats! Absolutely
impressive!
I think, when I adapt this scene (thanks also a lot for your scene
code), I will make the orange distance haze less high but more dense so
the planet cannot be seen through. I will try to remove the green lower
edge of the orange haze. But other than that, your scene is PERFECT!
ERROR ALERT
When trying to render your scene, POV-Ray errors with the message of a
missing } in front of the word "eccentricity". Can you correct that error?
My initial wish was, when i would have finished that scene, to make it
available to all POV-Ray users, even offering it as a ready-to-insert
scene code. But with all the great POV-Ray community members that helped
me so much with their own code, I feel like I have to ask them for their
permission. I will do that, when my scene is complete.
Big thanks again!!!

Thank you! That is indeed a very good explanation! It makes me
understanding it better now, well appreciated!
And that is what I like with the POV-Ray community: the great, truly
great and helpful spirit here! After all, we all are pioneers in some
ways with each of our POV-Ray scenes.

It was commented out, but the line got wraped at the wrong place when
posting.
Remove eccentricity or add // in front of it.

Thanks Alain! Yes, sorry, I had to wait to see the scene posted so I didn't know
it had line wrapped. You will get accustomed to that if you look at more of
these text scene postings! ;-)
Wrong line wrap is (mostly) okay, just a mess to read. It's those commented
parts that will error.
Wish you good luck adjusting the color bands of the atmosphere. I couldn't get
it any better myself after a couple hours so I gave up trying anymore. I think
it's because of the gradient y mixed with spherical warp, not really sure.
Just that every time I moved the index values it changed in ways (both altitude
AND color!) I wasn't able to get correct like I wanted.
And then there's that obscuring the background or shadowed objects with media...
I've always had trouble it. I hope you get it done!
Bob

Thanks!
Besides, what does "exentricity" do? Can't find it in the help file...

Glad to help.
Well, if spelled right... LOL
Sorry, I'm just being funny because I had seen the talk about language
translation-- obviously not about spelling. Anyway...
It's only used for media scattering type 5 and is for alignment changes of light
sources. So eccentricity 0 scatters light in all directions (like isotropic or
type 1), while 1 or -1 is oriented with light_source(s). Positive number is
toward light, negative away from light.

Density is best to be used for what it is made for: density. So, the
colour used in a density's colour_map are shades of grey from black to
white.
If you want the media to be coloured, then that can be achieved within
the emission/absorption/scattering parameters. However, clouds by
themselves are always white/grey (water vapour, remember?). Adding
colour makes no sense, except if you want to show alien additives like
pollution or ashes (volcanoes).

I shall have a look at what you brewed up. The scene looks nice indeed!

I concur ("agree" to save you looking it up).

I'd say to be entirely acurate, clouds themselves are colorless, or even more
accurately - reflect the colors surrounding them.
The tiny water droplets are clear, as are polar bear hairs, but due to the
extreme curvature, reflect light back toward the viewer, refract the light, due
to the ior, and scatter it.
Rainbows are just lit-up water vapor (and are circular).
I have, for the past year taken much more notice of things "out there" IRL, and
the clouds are almost _never_ white/grey - they are all manner of pink and
purple, and orange, red and bluish-gray....
It depends on the time of day.
Just nitpicking, and "keeping it real". ;)
