A library of putatively
optimal coverings of the sphere with n equal caps.
How should one place n points on a sphere so as to
minimize the maximum distance of any point on the sphere
from the closest one of the n points?
This maximum distance is called the covering radius.
We give putatively optimal coverings for n = 4, ..., 130.
