Watched this ST episode again, recorded on a VHS tape several years ago. The 
colors very faded. One of my favorites of Star Trek. I'm part trekkie 
anyhow. Maybe you know which show this was, too. Always wanted to put that 
enormous spaceship together in POV and so I finally did over the past couple 
days. The Enterprise is just some spheres, cylinders, cones, boxes.

What took me the longest time to do was finding a way to put the spheres all 
around into another spherical shape. I knew people had done plenty on that 
subject, uniform or random distribution. I didn't want to copy someone else 
so I tried looking for just a simple equation. When I did find one it was 
chaotic, something didn't seem right anyway, so I changed it around until I 
got what you see here. It still isn't like the ship, which had a hexagonal 
pattern.

Attached is three of the frames (with added force field) . The animation 
itself (no force field) can be found at my site via the Animations link. 
Nothing perfected at all, just playing with POV once again.

Thanks for looking!
