Möbius Strip - The One-Sided Mathematical Wonder #3315325 (License: Personal Use)

This illustration depicts a Möbius strip, a non-orientable surface formed by taking a rectangular strip, giving it a half-twist, and joining the ends. Its defining feature is having only one continuous side and one boundary edge, defying intuitive notions of surface orientation. First described by August Ferdinand Möbius and Johann Benedict Listing in 1858, it remains central to topology, physics, and engineering design.
