Polyhedral compounds

Compound of two truncated tetrahedra

This uniform polyhedron compound is a composition of two truncated tetrahedra, formed by truncating each of the tetrahedra in the stellated octahedron. It is related to the cantic cube construction of the truncated tetrahedron, as , which is one of the two dual positions represented in this compound. The vertex arrangement is the same as a convex, but nonuniform rhombicuboctahedron having 12 rectangular faces. (Wikipedia).

Three space-filling shapes hiding in the structure of diamond

Diamond is an arrangement of carbon atoms called the diamond cubic structure. As well as the cubes there are two other space-filling shapes that are found within it. In the unit cell I say "three more inside". It should of course be "four more inside". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamo
