In addition, I thank FarGetaNik for the given map of heights. :wink:

Wow I try to keep up with news for transneptunian objects, but the names of my favourite Plutino system and rings for Haumea took me by surprise!

Added several recently discovered objects.

: Two moons of the asteroid (3122) Florence

So my atmosphere definition seems to fit your standards

Your Venus did not cause contradictions. All the more, she looked like Ugarkovic's photos.

I'll think about the other atmospheres.

Exactly, I was going for that look.

Those exoplanet textures look fantastic! :clap:

Who made them?

For other planets: Jestr.

Thank you for the info.

Could you ask one of them to make a texture that would be best suited for the "Diamond Plant"? I made an addon for PSR J1719-1438 and its planet (known as the "Diamond Planet"), and my texture for the planet is in need of replacement.

You can see the addon at this thread: https://celestia.space/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=17782
