PolyBall The Problem: You probably know how many coins can be placed on a flat surface so that
they all touch an identical coin in the middle… Can you explain why this is the maximum ? Now can you imagine how many tennis or golf balls can be arranged,
in 3-D space, so that they all touch an identical ball in the middle ? Is there more than one way to do it ?
