In Star Wars/A New Hope, Han Solo flew past this huge planet and landed on
the green planet next to it.  They were in the Yavin System.  Later the
Death Star  approached and entered into orbit.

Here's Yavin today...

Great. Go on! Hmm. The atmosphere should influence the planet's color at the 
horizon. But I still say: grweat work! Wanna see more of it! Let's combine 
the different planets with the great greebles Zeger Knaerpen did with his 
genius!

Best greetings to all artists,

Sven

Are you referring to the red atmosphere around the red planet?  Yeah, that's
a tough one, getting the edge to blend in.  Seems hard to do in POV-Ray...

Who is Zeger Knaerpen?

Now notice the sharp contrast at the horizon at this beach... it's typically
what I see.

Just look around here, even in this newsgroup. He developed the great 
Greebles so many postings here are about. A great spirit, this Zeger. His 
genious greebles can be used to create realistic starships as seen in Star 
Wars or Battlestar Galactica.

Yeah, when seen from inside the Earth's atmosphere. But I had the orbital 
view in mind.

Greetings,
