[PSUBS-MAILIST] Program

[Sean T. Stevenson via Personal_Submersibles]

That's just a construction. Any regular polydehron that fits in your sphere can be used as a guide. Nuytco uses a cubic projection, so if you imagine a cube where all of the vertices touch the sphere, the weld lines are the great circle routes between vertices.

If two hemispheres don't work for you, the next lowest part count you can go to is four, corresponding to the tetrahedron projection.
