Solution to what exactly?

Both sets have a ~1:3:3 ratio, I'd guess you have two prolate spheroids?
and it indicates that yes, they have a similar shape as you stated.

Or is the concern the fact that there is ~4x difference between agg1 and
agg2 I values?  That indicates that agg1 is bigger than agg2.

Catch ya,
