Most of these methods are now obsolete and replaced with faster methods and gpu shaders. His [url=http://http.developer.nvidia.com/GPUGems2/gpugems2_chapter16.html]atmospheric scattering[/url]method is still used often due to its relative simplicity, but it only produces earth atmospheres.
[url=http://acko.net/blog/making-worlds-1-of-spheres-and-cubes/]Steven Wittens[/url] 2009 multipart series is frequently linked to as I've searched for best practices in creating planets using modern methods. It is based on a cube with mesh texture and normalizes the vertex points into a sphere. The advantage to this method is that conventional terrain LOD methods, often used in first
