%N Decimal expansion of the surface index of a regular icosahedron.

%C Equivalently, surface area of a regular icosahedron with unit volume. Among Platonic solids, surface indices decrease with increasing number of faces: A232812 (tetrahedron), 6.0 (cube = hexahedron), A232811 (octahedron), A232810 (dodecahedron), and this one.

%C An algebraic integer of degree 12 with minimal polynomial x^12 - 41115600x^6 + 765275040000. - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Apr 25 2016
