We show that if $G_1 \times G_2$ is not abelian, then one factor is the (abelian) group of order 2, and the other factor is non-abelian and contains an element of order 2. There exist finite and infinite such non-abelian subgroups.8 pagesGroup TheoryOn direct product subgroups of $\mathrm{SO}_3(\mathbb{R})$text
