Earth by day – space by night – 2 globes in 1! The ideal gift for would-be astronomers and budding geographers.
Why buy two globes when you can get this dual-functioning Earth and Constellation Globe? It comes with day and night views in one 22.8cm diameter piece - showing political boundaries, oceans, equator, longitude and latitude lines, country names, capitol cities, and major cities during the day, and a glowing star map with common constellation names in the night. It's scaled at 1:55,900,00 with a sturdy, stylish silver stand and matching graduated meridian.
The Earth and Constellation Globe has an automatic light sensor so when the globe is turned on and the surrounding area is dark the globe will transform into a beautiful glowing globe showing the star constellations. There is also a handy override switch which allows you to turn off the night-time view and thus conserve battery power. You can also power the globe with a micro USB cable (not included) connected to a USB port on a computer.
The Earth and Constellation Globe is a great learning tool for geographers and astronomers but also a great feature for any bedroom, living room or study. A truly unique globe.
