Crystal Ball Among the Stars: 3D Render

Ultra-detailed 3D render of a crystal ball floating among the stars. The crystal sphere is crystal-clear glass with realistic refraction and caustics, containing a miniature galaxy with swirling nebulae, star clusters, and distant suns visible inside. It rests on a sleek, reflective stand against a dense starfield with a faint Milky Way arc and blue-purple nebulae. Cinematic lighting with soft blue-indigo hues, volumetric light beams, subtle lens flares, and a gentle glow around the sphere. Shallow depth of field focused on the ball; HDR, ultra-realistic glass material, 8K quality.
