Nice texture, though I see no clouds in the atmosphere.
But background binary looks weird, there's something square occulting one of them

Are you sure there's no clouds ? I don't think so, plus it looks like there's a kind of small dust storms.

Re: NuclearVacuum's work
I'd expect more clouds, because more massive than Earth =P

Re: NuclearVacuum's work
There are clouds on the planet. I had no idea that the more massive, the more clouds? How can that be?

Re: NuclearVacuum's work
When the planet is forming, it attracts an atmosphere. The more massive the planet, the more of a gaseous envelope it can gravitationally bind to its surface. So a more massive planet can have a thicker atmosphere. Thicker atmospheres can support denser cloud cover.
But I don't see why a super Earth can't have a cloudless sky, assuming the chemistry and temperature conditions are right.
