In geometry, the grand antiprism or pentagonal double antiprismoid is a uniform polychoron (4-dimensional uniform polytope) bounded by 320 cells: 20 pentagonal antiprisms, and 300 tetrahedra. It is an anomalous, non-Wythoffian uniform polychoron, discovered in 1965 by Conway and Guy.

Famous quotes containing the word grand:
“The grand principles of virtue and honor, however they may be distorted by arbitrary codes, are the same the world over: and where these principles are concerned, the right or wrong of any action appears the same to the uncultivated as to the enlightened mind.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
