The color of your media is easier to control if you set either the scattering
color or color_map entries to grayscale, because the two are multiplied to get
the final density/color.
The sharp border is there because you have your map entries backwards: with
spherical, 1 is at the center and 0 is at the perimeter, whereas you seem to
have assumed the opposite.
