 A skybox is basically the "background" image of the game, it's a cube
 (i.e. six images, one for each side of the cube) and it can never be
 reached by the player in the game.
 We have a generator that can, from a 3D scene in the game, create a skybox
 for you.
 Your task would be to extend our skybox generator to randomly create even
 more beautiful space environments (with nebulae, stars, planets,
 asteroids, supernovas, ...)

 == Goal ==

 Add additional effects (nebulae, stars, planets, ...) to the skybox
 generator.

 == Implementation ==

 Think about different effects and objects to enhance our skybox. You could
 use particle effects, shaders, models, ...

 Look at other space shooters to get some inspiration.
