Ceres, Pallas, etc are all large enough that they are spherical. We should force the GL shader to depict this. (Right now they are lumpy)
Above diameter of 290, asteroids are mostly spherical. Lower mass and size equates to less spherical. This could be expressed in the shader.

These Big ones are almost dwarf planets
Vesta even had a mission to it, so we have a texture we can use: http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/589448main_pia14703-43_946-710.jpg http://ufb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/resources/asteroids/textures/
