2 questions.

1) Anyone know of a web tutorial or information on modelling celestial
bodies? (moons, planets, etc.) and how to achieve a realistic eclipsed
effect?

2) How do I model say a spiral of beads or something?  I guess I would need
to use a polar equation with spheres spaced along the motion path of said
3-d polar equation?
