These images of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune were all acquired by NASA. I placed them on this polyhedron, and created this rotating .gif, using Stella 4d, which you can try for free at this website.

The sky bursting full of rapid and illuminated clouds, rushing bright blue against an indigo background, made me feel I was looking up at the planet Neptune, stretching from one horizon to the other. I went inside, to get my phone, to snap a picture, but, when I got back out, the eighth planet above had been replaced — by a stormy-but-normal third-planet sky. I came back inside with no images, except in memory.
