Tilt your camera up is the simplest way. I've also placed my camera between two cloud banks at a decent altitude, and no generated terrain.

There is an option in the render tab to turn off surfaces.
Figured out how to do clicky signatures

You still need to tilt the camera up a s the "below ground" atmosphere is a little dull.  Boring saturated haze: you are never supposed to see it  ;D

In your objects tab, there's also an option for your planet called 'render surface', unchecking it will do the job.
It's handy for many things like, a complete water covered scene or an enclosed indoor render, in this case T2 won't render the 'shadowed' ground beneath/behind the objects first before rendering the waterplane/object, this saves lots of render time.
