I need help designing an algorithm to tessellate the surface of an ellipsoid into planks of lengths roughly equivalent to it's radius along various points from one end to another.

I can get the radius at any point. I can get the length (it is symmetrical about the midpoint, and the centroid). Brain kind of shut down though, and I need some advice or direction.
