Stella octangula  |  Stellated octahedron   (Engelsk)

Definition

There is only one way to stellate a regular octahedron, equivalent to adding a regular tetrahedron to each of its faces. The resulting figure is called the stella octangula.
Also, if we take a cube with top face ABCD and bottom face EFGH, with A above E, etc, then the union of the tetrahedra ACFH and BDEG is a stella octangula.
