Anyone,

I was wondering if there is a type of command in NX that would help create a geodesic ball using triangles? Or, are there tutorials or directions on how to create such a shape in NX? Anyone have suggestions on where to start?? Thanks!
 
Here's an icosahedron I quickly put together based on the equations in the link you provided. You can control the size by varying the "inscribedDiameter" expression. This isn't the only way to do it, nor do I claim it to be the best way.
