We describe a procedure of counting all equilateral triangles in the three dimensional space whose coordinates are allowed only in the set {0, 1, ..., n } 3 . This sequence is denoted here by ET ( n ) and it has the entry A102698 in "The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences". The procedure is implemented in Maple and its main idea is based on the results in [3]. Using this we calculated the values ET ( n ) for n = 1 ... 55 extending previous calculations known for n £ 34. Some facts and conjectures about this sequence are stated. The main conjecture raised here is that lim n ® ¥ ((ln ET ( n )) / (ln n + 1)) exists.
