3D model of a great stellated truncated dodecahedron
In geometry, the great stellated truncated dodecahedron (or quasitruncated great stellated dodecahedron or great stellatruncated dodecahedron) is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U66. It has 32 faces (20 triangles and 12 pentagrams), 90 edges, and 60 vertices.[1] It is given a Schläfli symbol t0,1{5/3,3}.
Related polyhedra
It shares its vertex arrangement with three other uniform polyhedra: the small icosicosidodecahedron, the small ditrigonal dodecicosidodecahedron, and the small dodecicosahedron:

Cartesian coordinates
Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a great stellated truncated dodecahedron are all the even permutations of
- (0, ±τ, ±(2−1/τ))
- (±τ, ±1/τ, ±2/τ)
- (±1/τ2, ±1/τ, ±2)
where τ = (1+√5)/2 is the golden ratio (sometimes written φ).
