A quartic surface which can be constructed as follows. Given a circle C and plane E perpendicular to the plane of C, move a second circle K of the same radius as C through space so that its center always lies on C and it remains parallel to E. Then K sweeps out the Bohemian dome. It can be given by the parametric equations
