One of the proposed exhibits for the Museum of Mathematics involves a Menger sponge, a geometric object devised by a mathematician named Karl Menger in 1926. The Menger sponge consists of a cube with ...

A particular fractal, called Menger’s Sponge, is all about surface appearances. It’s a purely theoretical shape that has infinite surface area and no volume whatsoever. And because of that, it doesn’t ...

From Simons Science News (find original story here). The Menger Sponge, a well-studied fractal, was first described in the 1920s. The fractal is cube-like, yet its cross section is quite surprising.

It should surprise no one that MIT has an origami team whose goal is to create a third level version of a 3-D fractal known as a Menger Sponge, whose ultimate incarnation is a shape with zero volume ...
