That a very cool picture (literally and generally speaking). I feel like trying to do
one like this again.
One thing. The backround is just fine, but the texture on the 'mountains' lacks
variety (~dull). I think a few turbulent marbled-line with light spot or anything else

would help.
Contrary to what Grim Dude said, The impression I have is that anything alive would be
instantly frozen solid.
The sharp shadows on the foreground increase the cold atmosphere ( nearly non existent
atmosphere). How about adding frozen lakes of helium or ammonium
(ammoniac ?).

Just keep at it !
