I finally finished a Povray package and published it on my website.
It places a photorealistic image of the Milky Way on the Sky-Sphere of Povray.
https://www.maetes.com/en/povray-os/ma_milkyway
The package is ready-to-use and contains all maps up to 16k resolution.
These and 32k maps can be downloaded separately in the download section.

Have fun with it,
Ma

Really interesting - it looks like the seed of the future
planetarium project ...
If you will be able to render stereo-pair in spherical projection
(VR360) for VR headset, I will include it in my gallery:
https://yesbird.online/gallery/
This is how to do that with different versions of POV-Ray:
-- HgPovray38 --
https://wiki.povray.org/content/User:Le_Forgeron/HgPovray38
-- Official POV-Ray 3.8 beta --
https://wiki.povray.org/content/Reference:Camera#User_defined_projection
https://www.clodo.it/blog/omnidirectional-stereo-ods-with-pov-ray/
https://paulbourke.net/stereoscopy/pov_odsp/
If you have a limited hardware resources, just make a scene setup and
share it here - I will do rendering on my fast 128-cores server.

Here is a quick sketch of possible scene implementation:

Press <Esc> or <Space> to get back to gallery home.
Use VR headset for best experience.

Great Job! I loaded the 8k and 32k images separately . The 32k images crashed
IrfanView. The 8k images looks great!
Having fun!

Thanks.
My Gwenview and 2 other picture-browser crashes also, even if you open a folder
with this big files, not the big file directly.
Nevertheless, povray use the files at least till the RAM is full without
crashing.
So far, I haven't found a way to make a good looking Milky Way without maps.
