Very nice vistas / renderings. The Titan lake view gives me an idea to try my sky simulation software, previously run with Mars aerosols, to use aerosol data from Titan. I see this reference that can help:

Any attempts to estimate the accurate appearance of the sky of Titan, or any world, would be appreciated. |

Any attempts to estimate the accurate appearance of the sky of Titan, or any world, would be appreciated. I'm still considering how to render Titan's sky from the surface. This University or Arizona animation shows a more uniform sky even near the sun without an aureole. This makes sense the more I think about it. The sun and sky color look pretty good. It's a quite well done rendering of the descent and surface views. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9L471ct7YDo (4:22 time in the video). Might be a challenge to see much sun reflection in a lake, maybe a few nearly pointlike glitter reflections. The pattern of glitters would be elongated in the vertical. The sun itself is also nearly pointlike, about like Uranus looks in a 50x telescope. The overall sky could darken a bit near the horizon, depending on the regional surface albedo. -------------------- Steve [ my home page and planetary maps page ]
