Nexorades - Pentagon Scale

Description

UPDATE: This image depicts the variation in the size of the "nexo-rotegrities," when the band length from the smallest rotegrity is used to size the pentagon bands for the other four nexo-rotegrities. (Essentially, the pentagons are now all the same size)
_________________________________

"Rotegrities" are also commonly known, today, as "nexorades." This set depicts the first 5 "nexo-rotegrity" spheres, in order of increasing triangle density (i.e.; frequency)

1v{0,1} - Radius = 1.000 (The first rotegrity, introduced by Richard Boyt, 1970)
2v{1,1} - Radius = 1.803 (Class-II geodesic tessellation)
2v{0,2} - Radius = 2.141 (Class-I geodesic tessellation)
3v{1,2} - Radius = 2.965 (Class-III geodesic tessellation)
3v{0,3} - Radius = 3.411 (Class-I geodesic tessellation)

(The frequency designations, above, follow current standards for geodesic sphere/dome labeling)

The original image depiction of the nexo-rotegrities, all with a radius of 1.000, can be found here: Rotegrities
