Skybox: Planetary Ring

Description
I wanted to try SE's newly added official mod support, so I decided to publish my old skybox.

It sets the player right 'above' a planetary ring (think Saturn).

Some info on the system: The planet is situated in a pretty far-off arm of the Milky Way Galaxy, 250.000 parsec away from earth. It has cold, dry climate and multi-cellular life. It is a little bit bigger than Earth and has a gravity of approx 1,14 g. Its ring system has 4 major asteroids and plenty of smaller ones, embedded in millions of dust particles.

Through the ring you can see the nearby Horsehead nebula, maybe you can also spot the Magellanic clouds, the Orion nebula and the Flame nebula

This skybox was created using Space Engine, procedural object number RS 8409-1353-7-1374802-99 6.

Lighting isn't perfect but not too bad either. The planet's resolution is also lacking, I hope to fix this soon.

Lighting is now "good enough"(tm), and the resolution of the whole thing is upped to 4k (yay!)

I made a Steam group for fans of Space Engine and Space Engineers. If you have any requests for specific skyboxes or if you want to discuss how to make them please join: Space Engineers meets Space Engine

@Bolisaris: It is indeed very outdated. Thank you for using it!

I am clearing out my mods and getting rid of unsupported mods, this being one of them.

@GuantanaMo I heard from another guy he had to reupload it before the tags appeared.. Steam workshop sure has its quirks heh

How do I add a tag? This skybox was created before there were categories and I can't find an option to add new tags.

Please tag your mod as Skybox! It makes it confusing when trying to filter down large amounts of mods ;) Otherwise great skybox!

250 000 pc is roughly x10 the distance from Sol of the farthest point of the Milkyway galaxy.
But other than that frankly minor quibble it looks pretty good.
