As we all know, alien spacepeople are very clever beings who enjoy practical
jokes. Having lights glowing in vacumm is a minor feat, easily done by having a
thousands of little light bulbs of varying intensity attached to the ship's tail,
thus recreating the glow effect.

You're right. It isn't called a 'lensflare' fot nothing :-)
But still it gives quite a humid look to the scene , I think.

Thank you! I'll try to make some other blobby spacecraft someday,

OK. Good to know. But it isn't as flexible as media.

It's a crackle pattern. Not the standard one, but I don't know the
'form' I used.
I'll look it up for you.
I'll put it on my webpage, someday...
Next year, or something...
When I find the time to do so...

It's a lensflare! It's caused by the camera! The only ionisation
glow is the exhaust: it spits out an ionized gas.

I haven't used crackle for stars yet but it does look promising.
What I have used is granite, like this:
sky_sphere
{
pigment{
granite
color_map{[ 0.9 color Clear][ 0.9 color White]}
scale .02
}
}
This has been one of my standard include files for years.

Yes, I did happen to think of being in a space suit with the helmet creating the
effect. Glad you pointed that out. The overall post-process 'soft_glow' makes
that seem plausible (it is still using post-process isn't it?). Except those
fairly bright green jets and other bright glare places probably need some extra
glow too. But then maybe those two sources of light are extremely bright by
comparison.
