A circle is the 2D foundation of spherical geometry. Cutting a sphere through its center produces a Great Circle.
Every cross-section cut through a 3D sphere is a 2D circle. When the cross-section passes through the exact center of the sphere, the resulting circle has the maximum possible diameter and is termed the Great Circle.
