that's it. you may want to play with your density a little.  you may
also want to difference a smaller sphere from the media container if you
find the center is too bright or dense or whatever.  if you use megapov,
you could give the smaller sphere a color (whatever the light should be)
and then hand edit the file to use double_illuminate.  if you don't use
mega, you could give the color a partial transparency.  and don't forget
to make the bigger sphere hollow with a transparent color or you won't
see media at all.  and don't forget to have enough samples.
