  1. What Are the Platonic Solids, Pillars of Sacred Geometry? #platonicsolids
    ..three-dimensional geometric figures that have fascinated mathematicians, philosophers and mystics for centuries. They are considered the fundamental building blocks of creation in the universe, representing essential elements and profound spiritual concepts.

  2. Another Lego sphere tryout – an octahedron made of triangles. The triangles are made from 3 1x6 plates connected by "in-plane" hinges. The triangles are then connected to each other with "out-of-plane" hinges. I realized the sides could be decorated with the same in-plane hinges which gave the thing a nice bit of texture 😊

  4. For #spacetober_challenge day 29 prompt orbit: #mathematician and #astronomer Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)! We remember him for his role in the Scientific Revolution, and his three laws of planetary motion in particular. His laws modified Copernicus’ heliocentric model; he replaced the circular orbits with elliptical ones & described velocities of planets. Today we know them as:

  17. #JohannesKepler was a brilliant #astronomer who studied the motion of #planets. Like everyone, he also had some strange ideas about the heavens, no doubt as a person in the middle ages would about the harmony of worlds and their purported relation to things like the #PlatonicSolids, which was of course bogus. He is probably best known for his famous three laws of #PlanetaryMotion which he reluctantly formulated when he had to abandon the idea that planets only orbit the #Sun in perfect #circles.
