I decided make some test about this...
Is not the result i expected, but is ok for a "one night" work:
two stretched spheres with very reflectives glass shaders cutting a dark planet with a tiny atmosphere
one render to illustrate the concept and test purposes, and another at planetary scale
advices are highly welcome :D
Ah, very creative!

Agree w/Oshyan...well worked out ....
I have replaced the spheres, by a torus ring ...
here is a test render in little scale. i gonna try to combine both effects at planetary scale tomorrow...
Very cool experiment. Like it!
The last one comes close to what I remember from "Interstellar".
Cool!
Thanks to all! even more closer...
Two objects (dark sphere and glass torus) with a few Km size
For some reason i cant get the torus reflecting a planetary scale cloud disc
i gonna try to attach the gathered scene tomorrow, to see if someone knows what is happening...
Edit: this should be posted here?
Very cool!
Crazy cool! :o

As i wrote in Discussion section, find myself limited by the default curvature of clouds following the planet
but i can still making big "holes" with an accretion disc less than 100k km of diameter, before the curvature cause problems.
for planetary size black holes, i gonna need to find a way to sort this problem...
Meanwhile, i'm still playing around ::)
Nice tests.
The final one
i put the two versions, with & without PW
Enjoy, and thanks for the comments!
i gonna upload the project very soon...
Stunning!!!
WOW! Awesome dude! :)
The final version is pretty amazing, well done! I like the post work for the most part, the smudges in particular are very effective. There seems to be an awful lot of lint/hair, though. Is that due to some increased static or something? I don't see this much hair on real windows on Earth... ;)

Great image
Thanks to all!
@Oshyan I guess i can give me some freedom here:
The closest black hole is 6000 light years from Earth, so you need to imagine a generational spaceship as the only way to get there
in that case, the hair accumulation in the windows doesn't look a bad idea after all...
even if i put a drawn heart form in the glass, or the Coldplay symbol, still gonna be realistic... 8)
Oh, what a great final! Congrats! :)
...and i must smile a bit since I saw that we in this forum seem to find and use similar and same sources for models... I am quite sure I know the station's model... Is it the Zenith station by KuhnIndustries?

Thx! you're right, i've downloaded this model a few years ago, and i had forgotten what the source was
i gonna add the artist source in the description of the image, thanks again!
GREAT THX for this great Black Hole File!
And by the way...
it seems to be this model here..

A cool Rendering

Zenith Space Station
STORMLORD
Great work, love it when people break the rules and make something new and original :)
Yepp! it's exactly that model from Turbosquid ;D
Unfortunately it will be destroyed in my film :'(
Funny how often we meet similar or the same models again and again ;D ;D
Great stuff!
