Sphere[{x, y, z}, r]
represents a sphere of radius r centered at (x, y, z).
Sphere[{x, y, z}]
represents a sphere of radius 1.
Sphere[{{x1, y1, z1}, {x2, y2, z2}, ...}, r]
represents a collection of spheres of radius r.
  • The radius r can be specified either in absolute coordinates, or as Scaled[s].
  • Colors and other material properties of spheres can be specified using color directives as well as Specularity and Glow.  »
  • Spheres can be specified as transparent using Opacity directives.  »
  • Sphere[{c1, c2, ...}, {r1, r2, ...}] represents a collection of spheres with centers ci and radii ri.
