Ed's Spacecurve Sphere:

This space curve was produced using the following Maple
commands:
> x:=cos(t/rho)*cos(t);
> y:=cos(t/rho)*sin(t);
> z:=sin(t/rho);
> rho:=30;
t
x := cos(---) cos(t)
rho
t
y := cos(---) sin(t)
rho
t
z := sin(---)
rho
rho := 30
> with(plots):
> spacecurve([x,y,z],t=0..2*rho*Pi,numpoints=2000,
> axes='FRAMED',scaling='CONSTRAINED',orientation=[20,62]);
