Description

The enumeration of all stellations of the icosahedron was accomplished in 1938. The geometric constructions and combinatorial algorithms used can easily be programmed in Mathematica. Its symbolic and graphic capabilities make it well suited to render the solids in a variety of formats. Icosahedra.m is a package for rendering all 59 stellations of the icosahedron. Some examples for its use are in the notebook Icosahedra.nb.
