6" Levitating Venus Globe
Rotating Venus on Gold Base w/ Space Probe Model
A detailed model of Venus that not only floats but
also rotates within its sleek gold electromagnetic stand. This 6" Venus
globe was composed using radar mapping data collected by NASA's Magellan
space probe.
Detailed labeling on this globe indicates many major
geologic formations including craters, ridges, corona, and highlands. Also
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 an actual space probe used to gather data
on Venus. A built-in computer chip continuously adjusts the magnetic field
when atmospheric changes are registered ensuring that the Venus 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 Venus.DIMENSIONS:
