## Calculates the angles @var{deg} for the distances @var{sm} in a sphere with
## @var{radius} (also in statute miles). If unspecified, radius defaults to 6371 km,

## Alternatively, @var{sphere} can be one of "sun", "mercury", "venus", "earth",
## "moon", "mars", "jupiter", "saturn", "uranus", "neptune", or "pluto", in
## which case radius will be set to that object mean radius.
