MOBIUS STRIP
Mobius strip is a one sided surface that can be constructed by affixing the ends of a rectangular strip after having gived one of the ends a one half twist.
- The space exhibits interesting properties, such as having only one side and remaining in one piece when split down the middle.
- The properties of the strip were discovered independently and almost simultaneously by two German mathematicians, August Ferdinand Mobius and Johann Benedict Listing, in 1858.
- If you cut a mobius strip through the centre line, you will have one long strip with two full twist, rather than two seperate strips.
