Today I was a little pissed off, and decide to blow a entire planet... ;)

The collapse doesn't work how I was expect, but I love the shockwave. :)
There's a group of 5 elementes at this scene:

• 1 sphere primitive (planet in collapse, using an animated shader). It's hided at some frame at the timeline;
• 1 more sphere primitive (planet allready collapsed). This object was destroyed using the Explode and Dissolve modifiers, plus some work at the alpha channel of the shader;
• 1 Bulb light, with the Sun Light Lens Flare effect, animated;
• 1 Particle Emitter, to create the planet pieces dispersion;
• 1 Vertex Object as circle form, to create the shockwave, with a animated shader.

When I fix the planet collapse effect (maybe a little spin at the globe...), I was share this Carrara scene with the community and at the Carrara Lounge's. ;)

Cheers!
