A Johnson solid is one of 92 strictly convex polyhedra that is composed of regular polygon faces but are not uniform polyhedra (that is, they are not Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, prisms, or antiprisms). They were named by Norman Johnson, who first listed these polyhedra in 1966.[1]
The name refers to one way of constructing it, by removing three pentagonal pyramids from a regular icosahedron, which replaces three sets of five triangular faces from the icosahedron with three mutually adjacent pentagonal faces.

The tridiminished icosahedron is the vertex figure of the snub 24-cell, a uniform 4-polytope (4-dimensional polytope).

gollark: It seems weird that the dead ones don't get lineages shown, anyway.
gollark: Oh, I see. Some idiot killed the dragon's family to try and make the lineage look shorter.
gollark: Where are those 32 generations coming from?
gollark: Taako said "slowly letting die", so I don't think so.
