Descending Through the Atmosphere

If you were landing on an alien planet in your shuttle craft, the trip down from the ship might look like this.  You’d need a Trek-type shuttle craft, or maybe a BSG Raptor or Viper, because they have viewing ports (they wouldn’t be called ‘windows’, of course).  What would be the point of descending through such an interesting atmosphere if you can’t see it?

On the other hand, all that drippiness might be kind of creepy… viewing ports might not be a bonus.
