This 3D model of the two solar coronal loops generated by dividing a Moebius strip in half. Each loop simulate represents a set of magnetic coronal loops of a solar active region between two pairs of dipolar sunspots. The 3D printing files (STL) were generated by Mathematica (a programming code). The overall set is designed as an educational-outreach program to teach the science and geometry of the heated coronal magnetic loops associated with a solar active region.
