Even asteroids need friends, so I hooked up the asteroid generator to a point cloud, tweaked a few things, and voila: asteroid fields!

The "merge" parameter doesn't really merge anything; it simply removes the randomization of the noise function per asteroid, so that nearby asteroids get similar noise values. I'm surprised how quick this still is. Granted, you need to lower the resolution, but its barely noticable from afar.

Heute Abend solltet ihr nach Sonnenuntergang tief im Südwesten die schmale Mondsichel finden. Links über ihr steht Saturn und rechts unterhalb sollte der flinke Merkur zu sehen sein. Viel Glück.

It's a problem that we only have one Universe. It's very hard to do statistics with N=1.
