| 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.
