you can apply 2 materials per face.

front face material comes standard

var sp:Sphere = new Sphere({material:frontmaterial, radius:500, segmentsH:10, segmentsW:10});

now since the front material would be, say, seas at .1 alpha, land at 1
to see the back faces, you need to set the property bothsides to true.

now the back faces would display the same material.
imagine you want to see across the seas of the front faces some little differences on the back faces,
just add a back material

so you final init object would look like this:
var sp:Sphere = new Sphere({material:frontmaterial, bothsides:true, back:backMaterial, radius:500, segmentsH:10, segmentsW:10});

the most basic way is to make a texture,
say sea = transparent.
sphere.bothsides = true...

then back material could be same image where the continents are in
alpha .6...
