Dear JulieEdwards, youre spotting reminds me of fullerenes.
Richard Buckminster Fuller was a noted architectural modeler who popularized the geodesic dome which consisted in adding pentagons to a layer of hexagons in order to obtain curvature. Later on, Smalley and Kroto got the Nobel price in 1996 for the discovery of fullerenes where the hexagonal layer of graphite is rounded in buckyballs by pentagons (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullerene). There is a lot of mathematics, crystallography a symmetry in livfe. Please, consider to add your Basket fungus spotting to the Life and Mathematics mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/9071...
