An ellipsoid
* is a three dimensional figure which is symmetrical around three perpendicular axes * has a cross-section in one plane which is a a circle, and the other planes cross-sections are ellipses. In other words, it is an egg-shaped object.
If you can stand an egg upright and you slice it through the middle parallel to the tabletop, you will see a circle, no matter where you slice.
If you were instead to slice downwards vertically in any direction you would see an ellipse.

What is the formula for the volume of an ellipsoid?
'If a, b, and c are the semi-axes, the volume is (4/3)πabc. When a b c the ellipsoid is a sphere and this formula becomes (4/3)πa3' (James and James, eds, Mathematics Dictionary D. Van Nostrand, 1960)
