Product Information

In addition, a 15 cm transparent Earth globe in the center of the celestial globe enables the observer to properly orient himself on the Earth. The Sun model revolves independently in an uninterrupted 360 degree path around the Earth following the ecliptic. The globe is mounted on a plastic base with a magnetic compass at the center. Includes: 180 degree tape- for measuring the radial distance, in degrees of arc, between the stars as they appear on the celestial sphere as viewed by an observer on the earth, and an illustrated teacher’s guide with suggested exercises.
