A sphere (the world) in OpenGL ES on Xcode

Is there a way, using only Objective-C, that I can make a 3d sphere and then put texture on it to make it look like the earth. I am completely new to OpenGL ES for iOS so please keep it simple.

There is no way to do this directly, but you can find lots of samples that would require just copy paste to do that.

Take this for textured object: http://www.raywenderlich.com/4404/opengl-es-2-0-for-iphone-tutorial-part-2-textures And this to generate a sphere: http://www.khronos.org/message_boards/showthread.php/4631-How-to-make-textures-mapping-to-sphere

And if you combine those :-) you'll get a textured cube
