iPhone Animated Sphere

I would like to build a sphere in opengles 2.0 that is animated. Basically I want to have a transparent sphere on which I have small images moving around randomly. I know how to make a sphere and to map a texture on it. I don't know how to add the animated images. Any suggestions?
