Yes, I think they are always only triangles?? Though many small triangles can
make a nice sphere…
There are typically some holes in the surface where the bonds meet the atoms,
and we are able to correct this with Netfabb.

The info I see for STL in Wikipedia speaks only of triangles. We'd
need cylinders and spheres too for a good rendering, right?
