Triacontrahedron as Limit Regular Polyhedron:

"The rhombic dodecahedron is the domain of omni-closest-packed spheres; the middle of its diamond face is the control point for the sphere's radius, the unity vector.

"But at the maximum limit is the triacontrahedron, the 15-great circle limit regular polyhedron generatable from spinnable symmetries. The T Modules emerge as the 120 similar units of the triacon with its 30 diamond faces."

"The T Modules are unfoldable as a square in which the prime vector is the square's diagonal--affording, for the first time, a physical model of Einstein's equation E = mc²."
