      Summary: Let \(K\) and \(L\) be two convex bodies in \(\mathbb R^5\) with countably many diameters, such that their projections onto all 4 dimensional subspaces containing one fixed diameter are directly congruent. We show that if these projections have no rotational symmetries, and the projections of \(K,L\) on certain 3 dimensional subspaces have no symmetries, then \(K=\pm L\) up to a translation. We also prove the corresponding result for sections of star bodies.
