Just yesterday I wondered why there’s never been a sci-fi planet near a globular cluster (that I know of), to have a spiky fuzzball of pinpoints of light, about the size of the moon, rising over an alien ocean.
Maybe even not as large as our moon, but enough to be able to make out its’ intricate features with the unaided eye.
I wonder how such a sight in the nighttime sky would affect the worldview, mythologies and development of science, in primitive technological cultures, say in their paleolithic or bronze phases.
