The Borromean picture is the boundary of the triple point. The surface depicted IS the projective plane, but immersed into 3-space. In the same way the standard picture of the Klein bottle is an immersion of that surface in 3-space. Since neither is orientable (each contains a Mobius band), neither can be embedded, in the way a torus can.

so just to clarify, is this surface just an extension of the projective plane but done on borromean rings for the boundary of the disks?
