The term 'radius' is almost always applied to spheres and circular objects. It is the distance from the edge of the circle/sphere to the center. Double the radius gives you the diameter, which is the longest chord you will be able to get. In other words, the diameter is the largest distance between any two points in a circle or sphere.
