Just a quick test of an idea I had on how to make this effect in POV-Ray; by
placing a number of lights evenly around in a circle;

#local N = 12; // number of lights
#local I = 0;
#while (I < N)
 light_source {
  <0, 500, 50> // (note the z distance)
  color <1, 1, 1> * 7.5 / N // adjust strength
  parallel
  point_at <0, 0, 0>
  shadowless
  rotate z * I * 360 / N
 }
 #local I = I + 1;
#end

Black background, and black fog to give more illusion of distance.
