Which nebula is this? Is it one cataloged?

Its Messier 78 (NGC 2068)

What did you do to the planet?

I added a lot of lakes and rivers and then increased "SpecBrightWater".

Hornblower Thanks

Just a quick question directed mainly to DoctorOfSpace and Aborygen: Are you using any post processing like reshade or are these pics directly from vanilla SE?

I add just a little color depth and that's all




(waiting for 0.9.9.0 supernova's )

Hey Aborygen, do you have any pictures of Venus-like exoplanets? They are so beautiful and majestic with their deadly clouds.

Yep

I recommend turning imposters back on, you won't have any real loss in quality and will have a pretty good performance boost
Appreciate it.
Is the auto-exposure setting realistic? I always used it, just because I thought it made planets look more photorealistic when compared to NASA photographs ...

Aborygen, do you use similar settings to me?

I turned off frame buffer and skybox on galaxies, but even with it enabled I have the resolution set to match my own to avoid blurring.

Thats my settings.

Aborygen, curious what your performance is when rendering all those stars and skybox settings/lack of skybox 

Its is so bad that i need to wait couple of minutes for my potato computer to render all of objects. But it does not matter much to me
