Friendly Sparkling Alien Spaceships
I know, I am again using this metaphor! But once I saw the friendly alien spaceships in these images, I could not unsee them! There is more background information about these sparkling ellipsoid and spheres in my previous post. Today I only want to show you number 2 and 3 in this series of four ... add create overdue poetry! In a private browser window, I am searching for "Friendly Sparkling Alien Spaceships" in DuckDuckGo. Visiting each search result one after the other, I pick a short […]https://elkement.art/2025/12/11/friendly-sparkling-alien-spaceships/

Bumblebees and Ellipsoids (Poinsot’s Paper Spaceship #3)
In the movie Ice Age, Manny the Mammoth says he is not fat - just poofy! It is just the fur! I feel the same must be true for bumblebees - they are fluffy, but not really fat! And yes, these were the things going through my mind, when I created this geometric drawing: A sphere is intersected by a "fat" ellipsoid that is neither an oblate UFO nor an elongated zeppelin.

There's a metal dome over the bar at Kilkenny in Hackeschermarkt that I always wondered if it would act as one of those "two points in an partial ellipsoid can hear each other really well" audio effect...
... and I've finally ended up standing right in that locus for the waiter station across the bar and now the bar staff chitchat is appearing right inside my head.

The Struve Geodetic Arc is a chain of 256 triangulation points, established between 1816 and 1864, stretching from northern Norway to the Black Sea, to measure the flattening of the Earth's ellipsoid #ellipsoid

An #ellipsoid . Just as a 2D #ellipse has two focal points, the 3D ellipsoid has two regions of strong focus. Sound or rays from one focus pt will focus at the 2nd
point and vice versa.For #math geeks, look up the 2 foci property of ellipsoids.
