From Blender to Unity : Earth V2.0

The goal here is to create a more realistic model of the Earth using Blender and then import it directly into Unity using the GLTF exchange format

Simply applying a texture does not yield a very accurate result. On the right is a simple texture applied to a sphere; on the left is a more refined Blender model that combines multiple textures for the Earth’s surface and an additional mesh for cloud cover.

In Blender, we start by generating two spheres: the first for the atmosphere and the second for the Earth.
