The surface parametrized by the family of lines lying on a non-singular cubic surface $V_3\subset P^4$. G. Fano studied the family of lines $F(V_3)$ on a three-dimensional cubic [1].

Through a generic point of a non-singular cubic $V_3\subset P^4$ there pass exactly 6 lines lying on it, and the Fano surface $F(V_3)$ is a non-singular irreducible reduced algebraic surface of geometric genus $p_g=10$ and irregularity $q=5$, with topological Euler characteristic (in case $k=\mathbf C$) equal to 27. From the Fano surface $F(V_3)$ one can reconstruct the cubic $V_3$ (see [2]).
