Three unit circles ω1,ω2\omega_{1}, \omega_{2}, and ω3\omega_{3} in the plane have the property that each circle passes through the centers of the other two. A square SS surrounds the three circles in such a way that each of its four sides is tangent to at least one of ω1,ω2\omega_{1}, \omega_{2} and ω3\omega_{3}. Find the side length of the square SS.
