This uniform polyhedron compound is a composition of 5 great icosahedra, in the same arrangement as in the compound of 5 icosahedra.
Under the action of the symmetry group, the triangles in this compound decompose into two orbits: 40 of the triangles lie in coplanar pairs in icosahedral planes, while the other 60 lie in unique planes.
