Nothing at all.  I guess I forgot to say to make it a bright object, colored
white.	There won't be any shading, and with the faces so far away, it'll
render as points.  But there's no need for either particles or a brushmap,
although the exact same thing MAY be possible with particles, but it may
not appear random enough. The faces will just be out there, not connected in
any way, and in the general shape of the giant sphere (which would encircle
your 'universe.')
