4D Euclidean space
Polytope of the Month
For the month of May, the polytope of the month is:
... the runcitruncated 24-cell, another beautiful uniform polytope from the 24-cell family. Its surface consists of 24 truncated octahedra and 24 rhombicuboctahedra, with the gaps in-between filled in by 96 hexagonal prisms and 96 triangular prisms.
