What you're looking for is a tutorial on the gather node for objects around your glowing item so that they pick up the ambient from the glowing object. Search the forum for "Gather Node".

Sure can. There are several "glowing" discussion / tutorial links in this thread:

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi

ISTR bill did one of those, involving a series of concentric objects surrounding
the central object, whose surface had one of the emitter channels set to the glow
colour.

however, there's no atmosphere in interstellar space, hence this wouldn't apply to
a spaceship exterior.  it would instead be a lens flare effect.

Would this be any good?

Yes. In space there would be no glow. Good point. Raven on the sample you show where did the tubulance come from on the fbm node? I added the node and set the dials but I don't get that "cloud" look.  tks for your help!!

Here's the material, albeit blue. You can change the colour easily enough. When you download it, remove the .txt from the end. Place it into your materials library in a folder somewhere and apply it.
