    The author studies nonnegative spherical polynomials \(p\) normalized by \(p(1)= 1\) that minimizes a surface integral over the unit surface for fixed degree. These polynomials are used to construct systems of nodes on the sphere that support stable numerical systems of zonal harmonics such as those whose condition numbers are bounded.
