Compound of five cuboctahedra

In geometry, this uniform polyhedron compound is a composition of 5 cuboctahedra. It has icosahedral symmetry Ih.

Cartesian coordinates

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of this compound are all the cyclic permutations of

(±2, 0, ±2) (±τ, ±τ−1, ±(2τ−1)) (±1, ±τ−2, ±τ2)

where τ = (1+√5)/2 is the golden ratio (sometimes written φ).
