hmm... I hadn't thought about how rotation affects wind, I was just going to
use some turbulence for the wind, but I'll add some rotation to it.
I'd like to get the mountain ranges to cause rain, but I can't see a way to
get a smooth result without taking lots of samples, and I'm not going to do
that for what is, after all, just a pretty pattern :)

As I said, the scale is rather inconsistent. The waves, buildings, and roads
are on a scale that's roughly consistent with each other, but the planet's
radius is much too small by comparison.

Such a nice planet... now - please - don't add pollution in your textures!
