With a bit of harmless ;) post-processing (ramping up the contrast) you get even closer:

The D3D9 allows to define the contrast for every planetary body separately. Using Exposure and Gamma (i.e. Aux4) sliders from atmospheric settings dialog. Might be good idea to add a color balance corrections too.

I grabbed that from Space Engine version 0.9.7.3, that is with the highest Moon textures 5.43GB. Looks like Orbiter wins here by alot. :hailprobe:
 
This is something I made yesterday night (i was bored xd). It's the CSSC (Banaba Island) with the Sun and the BPad.

It appears to be the same photo as the last one, but between the Sun and Pad you can see 5 planets aligned.

Where is Mercury?

Can you spot Mercury?

I accidentally found this on my trip to Mars with the the Delta-Glider.



Answer: Look for the black spot near the Sun.
 
Getting to learn Orbiter all over again. First, some aerial fun with the DG-EX... :tiphat:

Next stop... Mars!
 
I decided to make a detour on my way to Mars. And learned a few things. Such as, don't try to make a fast approach on small objects, because you won't be able to see them until they're right up on you, and by then it's too late. :lol:
