One row per orbit. Orientation counts are per position; multiple values mean positions differ.

Distinct-piece states

≈ 138,2403,317,760 arrangements of the stickers the moves reach (Schreier–Sims)÷ 24 turns of the whole puzzle= 138,240Tracks individual sticker identities, even on identical-looking pieces; whole-puzzle rotations are identified. Invisible rotations of a piece and internal pieces are not counted.

Visually distinct states

Not computedVisually distinct states = distinct-piece states ÷ reachable indistinguishable arrangements.Reachable indistinguishable arrangements = 1 × reachable fraction.No visually interchangeable sticker-bearing pieces were found.The reachable fraction accounts for restrictions such as permutation parity. Computing the correct fraction and the final visual state count is not yet implemented.
