'Start' run Earthview, 'Stop' ends the computations and removes the 3d model. Generally, using Earthview below an altitude of ~30 km / 100.000 ft is not recommended and will almost certainly not give the desired visuals. | 'Start' run Earthview, 'Stop' ends the computations and removes the 3d model.

Sliders further down can be used to adjust details. For instance, if no cloud shadows are rendered, it is possible to rotate the cloud sphere around Earth and give different places different weather (otherwise, the cloud pattern will always be the same, i.e. if a place is obscured by clouds initially, it will always be). Using Rayleigh, Mie and Density, atmosphere visuals (if Atmospheric light scattering] (ALS) is on) can be adjusted. Visibility dials the amount of fogging seen on the planet. | Sliders further down can be used to adjust details.

Earthview runs without ALS, but does not provide any credible visuals of the Atmosphere. | Earthview runs without ALS, but does not provide any credible visuals of the Atmosphere. | ||
