Hi,
this is a lithophane lamp based on imagery and elevation data by NASA. Some parts of the surface remain unknown and were filled with fictional data, accoridng to www.solarsystemscope.com where you can get a high resolution image of Venus and several other planets. Amazing page, go check it out (link below). The Lithophane was generated with the sphere making tool on Lithophanemaker.com. Also an amazing page. We are all standing on the shoulders of giants, I guess. Additionally I desgined a socket and a diffusor for the lamp and soldered the cable directly to the lamp. The Fusion360 files are attched, you can change and tweak the design as you like.
Note: My cellphone camera doesn't capture the color of the lamp correctly. In real life it's less red and slightly more orange.
Feel free to leave me some feedback and please let me see your version.
