Light. Clouds. A turning sky.
From clear-sky light to moving clouds, stars and the return of daylight.
Scattering & lighting
Air, aerosols and the sun shape a blue sky, a warm horizon and the light used by other scenes.
About this scene
Direct single scattering from air and aerosols, with ozone absorption and a sun disk. These views do not demonstrate global illumination or multiple-scattering transport.
Clouds & light
Weather, shape and low sun change a surface-view cloud layer.
About this scene
The camera views the cloud layer from the ground. Flying through clouds and orbital views are outside this scene.
Night sky & solar cycle
Procedural stars and the Milky Way emerge as daylight fades; the shared solar clock carries the sky back into day.
Day, night, and daylight again.
An accelerated full solar day: afternoon, sunset, stars and returning daylight.
About this scene
Procedural stars and a generated Milky Way are composed in the native sky renderer; the solar cycle controls their transition into daylight.
