Description

When flying or orbiting low over Kerbin and the Mun the terrain of the body renders improperly and becomes broken up into triangular segments. Each individual triangular segment takes on a specific shade, ranging from very bright to very dark independent of the surrounding segments.

I observe the same issue on my system. It looks exactly as shown in the screenshots by Calvin_K.

I also see the glitch when landed on the mun and orbiting kerbin, but I have not yet seen it on minmus. The shades of the triangles changes with the movement/angle of the camera.
When I zoom out sufficiently (a lot), the glitch disappears.

Note in the screenshot how the craft itself has no shadow rendered. Maybe the glitch has something to do with it.

Here is my system info:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014)
2.6 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel Iris 1536 MB
OSX 10.10.3 (14D136)

I would just like to say I observe the same bug as OP, and that in addition rendering on Ike is also broken, even more so, see screenshots.
The main annoyance of this bug is that there is no ship or Kerbal shadow, so landing on said bodies becomes much more difficult.

As in OP's case, Minmus does not seem to be affected.

Here is my system info:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014)
3 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel Iris 1536 MB
OSX 10.10.3

I have seen this reported a few times but only with Intel Iris graphics cards, are any of you able to test this on other Macs which use other cards?
