You need to play around with transformations (scale, rotate, translate) to make
sure you understand what is going on.

For example, what will happen to the position of the following two spheres if
you scale them by two?

sphere{<0,0,0>,1}
sphere{<2,0,0>,1}

The thing to understand is that when you scale an object, the only point of that
object that will stay still is the point at <0,0,0> (if it has a point in that
position) - all other points will move.
