I love Star Trek, really.. Nice to see others here who do, too.. I haven't
seen the "new" Enterprise yet, but I'm planning to make a realistic looking
Pov spaceship of my own.. I was thinking about, what can be done to increase
realism of textures?

On Earth, a metal texture may feature rust, organic dirt and tiny
scratches.. What would happen if a ship has some organic dirt on it, and
accelerates up through the atmosphere.. Would the dirt burn off completely?
Would it separate from the metal in outer space, due to the cold
temperature?  Is it wise at all to have thin glass-like windows on a
spaceship, even with electric shields?
