Hi Bob, This version seems a bit closer to their artist's rendition 
because it seems more regular.  But that is precisely what I find less 
believable.  I liked the larger variations in scale that you first 
version had, but my knowledge of this "world" of celestial bodies is 
admittedly limited.  Mars and the moon mostly.  -Jim
