Diagonal sections of the 600-Cell.


Mathematical description
The 600-Cell is the fourth dimensional polytope bounded by 600 tetrahedra. To obtain the sections, the polytope is intersected with three dimensional spaces. When the spaces are perpendicular to the line OV where O denotes the center of the polytope, and V any of its vertices, then the sections are called diagonal.
