The Equinox - Rotating Display
Globe
16" 3-D Earth Model, Displaying Night and Day, Seasonal
Changes
Observe the changing pattern of sunlight falling over
each hemisphere of this fascinating globe. Beautifully illustrating night
and day, as well as the inclination of the Earth as the seasons pass, this
globe is suitable for public display in libraries, museums, reception areas,
etc.. Children and adults alike are mesmerized by the effect of viewing the
earth in 3-D, as it appears to "float", spinning from light to darkness,
gradually changing its tilt. Based on an astronomically true formula, the
globe allows you to observe one year in six minutes.
The
individually crafted full Earth globe is lit from within, yet ingeniously
shielded so that only half of the planet is visible as the globe turns,
perfectly recreating how the sunlight varies over the surface of the Earth.
The internal robotic mechanism design provides accurate inclination,
following the seasons through the year (1 year = 6 minutes).
Not just an "earth as seen from space" display. This globe is 16" in
diameter and is politically up to date, allowing you to refer to specific
places as you observe the seasonal patterns.

aid, or as an attention commanding display, this globe is unlike any
