Distel, a smooth algebraic surface of degree six. This is the set of real points for which
```
x^2+y^2+z^2+1000 * (x^2+y^2)*(x^2+z^2)*(y^2+z^2)-1 = 0.
```

Has no holes! Has no singularities! Is actually smooth at its points! Not actually pointed! Topologically equivalent to a sphere!

I have provided these files:
* `Distel_Super_Smooth.stl` -- sampled to decently tight tolerances.
* `Distel_Newsmooth.stl` -- surprisingly, an older version of the sampler was used to refine it. Take the name with a grain of salt. Enjoy
* `input` -- the Bertini_real input file used to compute it.

One of the first surfaces I computed with Bertini_real, in early 2014.

This surface was sampled before I implemented cyclenumber > 1 sampling, so the surface is undersampled near critical points and singularities.

Computed with a Numerical Algebraic Geometry program I wrote, called [Bertini_real](https://bertinireal.com) and printed as part of my long-term project to reproduce [Herwig
