We are interested here in the geometry of an ordinary sphere. In plane geometry we study points, lines, triangles, polygons, etc. On the sphere we have points, but there are no straight lines --- at least not in the usual sense.

Sphere Facts ... Of all the shapes, a sphere has the smallest surface area for a volume. Or put another way it can contain the greatest volume for a fixed surface area. ... The sphere appears in nature whenever a surface wants to be as small as possible. Examples include bubbles and water drops, can you think of more?

We want to explore some aspects of geometry on the surface of the sphere. This is an interesting subject in itself, and it will come in handy later on when we discuss Descartes's angle-defect formula.
