Texture on a sphere : Create the Earth, Model the Solar System, Drive A Rover on Mars
P. Flavin
Map an image on a Sphere, create the Earth, like this:
http://www.cs.nps.navy.mil/people/faculty/capps/4470/java3d/examples/ConicWorld/TexturedSphere.html
public TexturedSphere(java.net.URL url) {
texImage = url;
}

Get portable, reliable 3d animation in a browser with Java3d
using the Sun VRML Loaders, don't encourage the Yumetech fraudsters
and the criminal fraudsters at the NIST commit crimes with them.
Animate NIST, US Navy PGS, NSF Fingerspelling with VRML, portably.
