Query: Interactive Visualization of Atmospheric Effects for Celestial Bodies   We present an atmospheric model tailored for the interactive visualization of
planetary surfaces. As the exploration of the solar system is progressing with
increasingly accurate missions and instruments, the faithful visualization of
planetary environments is gaining increasing interest in space research,
mission planning, and science communication and education. Atmospheric effects
are crucial in data analysis and to provide contextual information for
planetary data. Our model correctly accounts for the non-linear path of the
light inside the atmosphere (in Earth's case), the light absorption effects by
molecules and dust particles, such as the ozone layer and the Martian dust, and
a wavelength-dependent phase function for Mie scattering. The mode focuses on
interactivity, versatility, and customization, and a comprehensive set of
interactive controls make it possible to adapt its appearance dynamically. We
demonstrate our results using Earth and Mars as examples. However, it can be
readily adapted for the exploration of other atmospheres found on, for example,
of exoplanets. For Earth's atmosphere, we visually compare our results with
pictures taken from the International Space Station and against the CIE clear
sky model. The Martian atmosphere is reproduced based on available scientific
data, feedback from domain experts, and is compared to images taken by the
Curiosity rover. The work presented here has been implemented in the OpenSpace
system, which enables interactive parameter setting and real-time feedback
visualization targeting presentations in a wide range of environments, from
immersive dome theaters to virtual reality headsets.
