Not the most creative title but I think this pic has potential nonetheless.
Comments?

A few things I plan on adding once I learn how :)

1. Turn the ugly blob atmosphere into media
2. Put a light inside the earth that will use the earth as a filter
3. Use an isosurface instead of a sphere for the earth with very exagerated
height
4. Add some more stuff for the steel to reflect so it doesn't look so dull.
Might not have to if #2 works out though.

Any other ideas?

Thanks, Corey

It's a lava lamp :)  With real lava inside the crispy shell :)  (OK, so 
while it's inside the shell, strictly speaking it's magma...)

Actually, global warming is the result of an eccentric orbit. Global warming has
occured at regular intervals throughout Earth's
history. You can thank the media and like idiots for attempting to spread their agenda
through mis-information. Burning fossil fuels
has no more effect on global warming then 10,000,000,000 Earthlings eating refried
beans simultaneously. Well, we don't have ten
billion Earthlings, but anyway... the result is nil.

Big potential.  This looks like a good way to display planets
inside the pov musesum.
