Given a homogeneous Poisson point process in ℝ d , Häggström and Meester (Random Struct Algorithms 9 (1996) 295–315) asked whether it is possible to place spheres (of differing radii) centred at the points, in a translation‐invariant way, so that the spheres do not overlap but there is an unbounded component of touching spheres. We prove that the answer is yes in sufficiently high dimension. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Random Struct. Alg., 2009
