Never one to be constrained to just terrestrial planets, I figured I'd put my rendering software (jDem846) through an exercise in gas giants.

| Description |
English: Never one to be constrained to just terrestrial planets, I figured I'd put my rendering software (jDem846) through an exercise in gas giants. To produce this, I had to borrow some textures from Celestia, which I admit currently produces an image quality considerably better than this. I found that I also needed number of API additions to my code to respect the ellipsoid (flattened) nature of the planet as well as lighting and other tweaks.
This wasn't nearly as involved as my previous "Living Mars" images, but allowed me to approach the graphics algorithms with a different use case. The point of view is from about 265,000 km away at a slightly southern latitude. The longitude is non-specific. |
