Divided Spheres: Geodesics and the Orderly Subdivision of the Sphere
Review "… illustrations in the book, nearly all of them computer generated, are very good indeed. … The book contains an extremely detailed metrical treatment of all the regular and Archimedean polyhedra. An important construction is the space tessellating octahedron + tetrahedron which Fuller described as ‘simplest, most powerful structural system in the universe.’ Taking tubes along the edges of the tessellation, he devised and patented a joint to which up to nine tubes could be connected, making a very rigid structure. This is called the ‘octet struss connector’ and receives an entire, beautifully illustrated chapter in the book. … remarkable book … the sheer scale of the book, 509 pages on how to divide up the surface of a sphere, is amazing."―Peter Giblin, The Mathematical Gazette

Doc fetch goes through Layer's Aerospike pull-through cache; cache hit served the row without touching turbopuffer. The similar query re-embeds this product's title with CLIP-text and runs a vector query — queries don't go through the doc cache, so no cache header is set.
