Order-6 triangular hosohedral honeycomb


In geometry, the order-6 triangular hosohedral honeycomb a regular space-filling tessellation with Schläfli symbol. It has 6 triangular hosohedra around each edge. It is a degenerate honeycomb in Euclidean space, but can be seen as a projection onto the sphere. Its vertex figure, a triangular tiling is seen on each hemisphere.
