Cruising the British Isles, seeing if I'm smart enough to follow a map.

A few snapshots from a visit to ISS:

And the shot from a Return To Landing Site Abort:

I've finally found it, under Textures/Sky/moon.png :mrgreen:

The new one is from https://www.solarsystemscope.com/textures/, CC license. It's about 20MB, so I don't think there is too much interest there, up to taking shots with monster focal length

Cheers,
Chris.

Quite beautiful, Chris!

Is the moon a 3D-model or is it just a 2D plane?

I mean, now that we established, that the earth is flat, the moon probably is flat as well... :mrgreen:

Is the moon a 3D-model or is it just a 2D plane?

I am not competent enough to answer, but that looks like it is 2D, like a sprite in Duke Nukem
