I have the same problem, and its only present when you have clouds enabled... disable the clouds[I] and that effect dissapears(but also the clouds)... It has something to do with the lastests nvidia drivers...

This is a common problem (bug?), hanging around for some time now. I don't know, but it perhaps started with the 1.3.2pre versions. Not only spacecrafts, but all models (asteroids, moons, ...) are affected, and sometimes it's very ugly.
Let's wait and hope

the promble still exist in the following releases!
May be It's a promble limited to specify video card or OS.
but I want to know if there is a solution to this promble.

There is no solution yet.
It's a problem of Nvidia MX Cards, and obviousely there has to be a driver update to solve the problem.
