The displayed space curve, , lies on a cone and is parametrized by arc length. It has a constant tangent angle with its axis, while the turn spacing shrinks geometrically toward the limiting apex. Its curvature is : differentiate its unit tangent with respect to . Infinitely many turns accumulate at the apex with finite arc length; the apex itself is not a regular point of the curve.
