of a sphere on a flat surface surrounded in the same plane by six identical spheres as closely as possible.
Three spheres are then placed over the first layer so that they touch each other and represent the second
layer. Each one of these three spheres touches three spheres of the bottom layer. Finally, the second
layer is covered with a third layer that is identical to the bottom layer in relative position. Assume radius of
every sphere to be ‘r’.
