If you could remove Atmo from planet you would see it from space too. Maybe some other spectrum pictures would show it like heat pictures.

Doesn't look like the one I see on the pictures. We don't have the large band (whatever they are called) that goes for hundred of kilometers. And it is certainly difficult to see it from space, if at all.
Don't blame atmo for it, you can see lots of other structure from space.
This is how real craters in our solar system look, not two are alike:
@drew Sorry for stealing your picture
I said it is STILL visible, it is in process of being gone - grass, animals, wind - all that terraforming stuff.
With lines u can see on Moon using any telescope from here. Need to do like x70 zoom

@drew Sorry for stealing your picture
And where is another one in our solar system that looks EXACTLY like the one you point out?
Still not the same.
The line are "fatter", the crater in the middle is bigger in proportion. The star shaped line are more regular, etc....
Keep trying, I want to see that exact crater that I see in most planet, if it is, as you claim, "natural". Apparently, God only had one asset for big crater for the universe. And nobody but you noticed.
Not the same at all. No big crater, less "lines". Keep trying.
Use real telescope., that will be shock - content for u - it "waves"
Image is distorted and in motion.
War.. war never chang.. oh wait sorry, wrong reference.
Oh no! Somebody copy-pasted Mooon!

Anyway it was funny for a while, but the whole thing is becoming tiresome. You know what they say about jokes, the shortest are always the best.Oh no! Somebody copy-pasted Mooon!

Toodle.
Didn't used to look that way. Then came "that weekend."
My buddies and I still talk about that one. But not with law enforcement around.
I shall give you a like on basis of reminding me Postal 2: Apocalypse Weekend exists.
Wants a game that can render the universe on an average computer.
Also wants the moon!
Go figure!

I see your point, but that's not really what anybody is asking for. I mean, Horizons and Space Engine both do a fairly good job of creating the illusion, which is all that is asked for, unless I'm fundamentally misunderstanding the general gist of the thread. It's all I'm asking for, that's for sure, because anything more would be a bit much, to put it mildly.
And an illusion requires a bit of smoke and mirrors, and that's fine.
As long as the mirror isn't standing front and center of the stage and the guy operating the smoke machine isn't wearing a clown suit while honking his horn loudly.
Because it's possible, to some extent, at no great cost. You don't render the universe.
Do you really think your computer handle the entire galaxy at once ? Or even entire planet ? It doesn't. No computer could (except perhaps some supercomputer). If you are in orbit of a world, the computer handle a predetermined random mesh and texture (and by mesh, it's basically a sphere). The skybox is pretty much the same. As you go down, that texture is replaced. Several time I think, until you get to the ground. Then the game only render the area in front of you, up to some distance.
See, we are very far away from "the entire galaxy".

cough Yes, I want the moon.
I beg to differ... The desire for every object to be indistinguishable from the other billion approachable objects is what is being aimed at here. The fidelity has to be compromised otherwise... (see below)
I... LOVE... Orbiter. For realism and having to use your noggin, it's just the bees knees.Orbiter - Gallery

However, to get the kind of fidelity that works in Orbiter, it's somewhere in the region of half a terabyte JUST for the solar system.
