Kepler's final step was to recognize that these polyhedra fit the definition of regularity, even though they were not convex, as the traditional Platonic solids were. In 1809, Louis Poinsot rediscovered Kepler's figures, by assembling star pentagons around each vertex. He also assembled convex polygons around star vertices to discover two more ...

Kepler (1619) discovered two of the regular Kepler–Poinsot polyhedra, the small stellated dodecahedron and great stellated dodecahedron. Louis Poinsot (1809) discovered the other two, the great dodecahedron and great icosahedron. The set of four was proven complete by Augustin-Louis Cauchy in 1813 and named by Arthur Cayley in 1859.
The regular star polyhedra are called the Kepler–Poinsot polyhedra and there are four of them, based on the vertex arrangements of the dodecahedron {5,3} and icosahedron {3,5}: As spherical tilings, these star forms overlap the sphere multiple times, called its density, being 3 or 7 for these forms.
