I have a series of 5681 points that lie on the unit sphere.  These were generated by a simulation in another software package (I plat to use Maple for this in the future).  But anyway, I'm stuck on plotting right now.    The pointplot3d  command plots them all at once.   I want to slow this down and see them plotted sequentially in time, adding a new point at each time increment.    It would be like watching a zipper or a string of yarn being wound onto a ball.   It doesn't seem like the usual animation controls allow me to do this.  Hope that description makes sense.
