Thanks Hubert, I've already got it set to moon.
I'm not really impressed with the result when using the moon disc, it looks awfully faded...
What I'm trying now is a real sphere with a real planetary texture mapped to it (Using Enceladus! Love it!)
However, I've also turned off the clouds and gone to using a cloud plane instead, by some strange fluke this seems to be working really well, I'm not getting much cloud in front of Enceladus on the left, but I'm getting some really rich clouds on the right, rich and wow kinda colourful!
And, Hubert! I've got a sphere inside a sphere too! ROFL!
I think the fadedness was partly a consequence of the combination of a cloud plane and the moon disc just being so dim looking - I don't know if it's possible to get it looking any brighter.
