Möbius Strip: Also known as
Some sources use the term Möbius band, presumably on the grounds that the word strip may be considered inappropriate language to use in front of children and adolescents.
In typographic environments where it is impossible or inconvenient to implement the umlaut, the spelling Moebius strip is often seen.
