This class is based largely on the Ellipsoid class defined in the book
"3D Engine Design for Virtual Globes". Most planets or planetary objects are better
described using ellipsoids than spheres. All inputs and outputs to this class is
in the WGS84 standard coordinate system where the x-axis points towards geographic
(lat = 0, lon = 0), the y-axis points towards (lat = 0, lon = 90deg) and the
z-axis points towards the north pole.
