It's Earth because I wanted to show off the 21600 x 10800 image map

The atmosphere has two parts, a media-filled sphere that's the
blue glow, and a media-filled sphere with a cloud texture that's
the clouds, which I heavily altered to make the surface more
visible.  See comment above.  The Discovery and EVA pod are
just there to add interest; the real focus I haven't planned
a design for the overall ship yet.
