Möbius
In 1858, August Ferdinand Möbius and Johann Benedict Listing independently discovered the concept of a one-sided surface—what we now call the Möbius strip. A little-known fact is that neither realized immediately that they had stumbled upon the same geometric oddity. Their simultaneous work remained largely uncoordinated, and Möbius’s name stuck to the phenomenon in popular usage.
