Thanks for the feedback.
I've posted a prototype of my Space Scene Generator in povray.text.scene-files

It should draw the same background as my sample image. The nebulae are built-in
stone/granite textures mapped onto a couple of concentric sphere centered on the
camera.

All the elements in that scene are controlled by random seeds. It took more than
a few tries before I got a nebula that I liked! See the comments in the scene
file to learn how to modify the random seeds. It renders very quickly, so I
usually base the main randomizer on "clock" to render dozens of completely
different random scenes.

Cheers,

Rob.
