In geometry, an icosahedral prism is a convex uniform 4-polytope (four-dimensional polytope). This 4-polytope has 22 polyhedral cells: 2 icosahedra connected by 20 triangular prisms. It has 70 faces: 30 squares and 40 triangles. It has 72 edges and 24 vertices. It can be constructed by creating two coinciding icosahedra in 3-space, and translating each copy in opposite perpendicular directions in 4-space until their separation equals their edge length. It is one of 18 convex uniform polyhedral prisms created by using uniform prisms to connect pairs of parallel Platonic solids or Archimedean solids. (Wikipedia).
How to Construct an Icosahedron
How the greeks constructed the icosahedron. Source: Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 16. In geometry, a regular icosahedron is a convex polyhedron with 20 faces, 30 edges and 12 vertices. It is one of the five Platonic solids, and the one with the most faces. https://www.etsy.com/lis

The remarkable Platonic solids II: symmetry | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 48 | NJ Wildberger
We look at the symmetries of the Platonic solids, starting here with rigid motions, which are essentially rotations about fixed axes. We use the normalization of angle whereby one full turn has the value one, and also connect the number of rigid motions with the number of directed edges.
