4D Euclidean space
Polytope of the Month
This month we present another 4D Catalan polychoron, this time from the tesseract family:
This is the rhombipyramidal hecatonenneacontadichoron, the dual of the runcitruncated tesseract. It is bounded by 192 skew rhombic pyramids, 480 polygons, 368 edges, and 80 vertices. Find out more about this pretty polychoron on the rhombipyramidal hecatonenneacontadichoron page!
Full algebraic coordinates are given, as usual.

4D Visualization
Ever wondered how to visualize 4-dimensional space? It's not as difficult as it may sound at first! Read the 4D Visualization pages to find out more.
4D Objects
These pages contain information about various 4D objects and many images of their projections into 3D.
The regular polychora: the 4D equivalents of the Platonic solids.
The uniform polychora: the 4D equivalents of the uniform polyhedra, including the Archimedean solids and the prisms and antiprisms.
The Catalan polychora: the 4D generalizations of the Catalan solids.
The CRF polychora (Convex Regular-Faced polychora): a 4D generalization of the Johnson solids.
Other geometric objects: a collection of some simple 4D objects and their 3D projections.
