Lune Millennium Bridge Lune Millennium Bridge The Lune Millennium Bridge is a cable-stayed footbridge which spans the River Lune in Lancaster, England. It was designed by Whitby Bird and Partners, and built at a cost of £1.8m to commemorate the millennium of 2000. The bridge forms a "Y"-shape in plan to connect one bank both to a viaduct and adjacent quay. Its double pylon seeks to act as a reminder of the masted ships which previously used the quay. It features a main gangway of just over 30 metres and masts around 40 metres tall. The bridge is part of the National Cycle
Spherical lune the second half great circle has moved a full circle, and the lune in between covers the sphere as a spherical monogon — the area formula for the spherical lune gives 4π"R", the surface area of the sphere. A hosohedron is a tessellation of the sphere by lunes. A n-gonal regular hosohedron, {2,n} has "n" equal lunes of π/"n" radians. An "n"-hosohedron has dihedral symmetry D, ["n",2], (*22"n") of order 4"n". Each lune individually has cyclic symmetry "C", [2], (*22) of order 4. Each hosohedra can be divided by an equatorial bisector into two equal spherical triangles. The visibly lighted
