Hi Galnospoke, welcome to the forum. It's not a problem just the way the Sim is although planet should grow to fill your forward screen as you descend to the surface. :)

The idea of fully realistically sized planets was done away with back around 2006 when Arvoch was released. There were too many problems with long descent times and atmospheric travel distances that their size was compromised to be between fully realistic and the marbles in the original Evochron. The current size has generally received the fewest complaints and most positive feedback.
