An insect crawls up a hemispherical surface very slowly. The coefficient of friction between the insect and the surface is $1/3$. If the line joining the centre of the hemispherical surface to the insect makes an angle $\alpha $ with the vertical, the maximum possible value of $\alpha $ so that the insect does not slip is given by
