To get rid of the red, go to the lens flare options and uncheck the red glow.

wow that looks great. um.. out of curiosity?

I would have left out the light and put it in paint shop pro to do it. but if your animating it i could see your problem.

Default update

heres an updtate. this is where the animation ends , it starts with a far view and ends with this

i can't get the atmosphere to look right still. but since its an animation its not that noticable. thanks for you comments

roshan: You could check out this tutorial from Dean Scott on creating a photoreal earth. It's for LW 5.5/6 but the techniques should transfer into newer versions too...
