Script Preparation code:

var xs = new Float32Array(N);
var ys = new Float32Array(N);
var zs = new Float32Array(N);
var cos_thetas = new Float32Array(N);

  const x = 2 * Math.random() - 1;
  const y = 2 * Math.random() - 1;
  const z = 2 * Math.random() - 1;
  const mag = Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y + z * z);
  xs[i] = x / mag;
  ys[i] = y / mag;
  zs[i] = z / mag;
}

for (var i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
	cos_thetas[i] = Math.cos(2 * Math.PI * Math.random());
