Lore for what planets?

[Burning Legion]

I've been reading up on the lore for warcraft (thought how funny the draenei and orcs remind me of the tuffles and saiyans in dbz). Anyway I was just wondering, is there anything said to what planets are shown up in the sky of the hellfire peninsula? Are any of them Azeroth?

Yes. It becomes noticeable (I won't say obvious) when you're lying dead on the Black Temple interior terrace, and waiting for the rest of the raid to die on Supremus, that one of the "moons" visible in the sky there is in fact Azeroth. (It's upside down from the map, but yeah.... that's Azeroth)

Can you see Northrend?

If you can see Azeroth, you would think you could see Northend, but I wonder if the Blizz people have changed that, hehe.

The Kalimdor land mass is the most obvious from the times I've been face planted on the terrace. The Durotar/Azshara peninsulas really stick out, once you realize that north and south are transposed. (Northrend would be at the bottom). There is a lot of cloud cover, but if you have the time to watch it (Wipe already!) you can see it. I've only noticed it from this area, however. The closer you get to Supremus's end, the larger and more obvious the world becomes. (Why? idk.)
