6" Levitating Jupiter Globe
Rotating Jupiter on Silver Base w/ Space Probe Model
A detailed model of Jupiter that not only floats
but also rotates within its sleek silver electromagnetic stand. This 6"
globe of Jupiter was composed using a collection of thousands of images
taken by NASA and The European Space Agency.
This globe of Jupiter
clearly depicts the counter-rotating cloud bands that cover the planet's
exterior as well as anticyclonic storms such as the Great Red Spot.
Included with the globe is a 6-page informational booklet with details,
dates, and specs of both the planets, and the probes.
The globe levitates freely in a computer controlled magnetic field
underneath a realistic model of a Voyager space probe used to gather data
on Jupiter. A built-in computer chip continuously adjusts the magnetic
field when atmospheric changes are registered ensuring that the globe
stays suspended. Rotation of the globe is controlled electronically,
simply give it a slight spin and watch it continuously rotate. A unique
and very interesting globe for anyone fascinated by astronomy, space
exploration, or the planet Jupiter.
