Bring the brilliance of the night sky right in your living room with this constellations globe. Each of the 88 constellations recognized by the International Astronomical Union are depicted using a series of star shapes, dots, and lines to give the impression of varied distances and sizes. Stars and constellations are shown in a metallic silver tone atop a deep black backdrop, allowing every shape to pop.
Founded in 2003 by physicist and inventor Bill French in a small San Diego beach town, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, these handcrafted Mova Globes use hidden solar cells powered by ambient light, while the earth’s magnetic field provides the necessary torque, allowing the globe to rotate within a clear outer shell. Globes come with an elegant three-finger stand but work on any stand or surface (except for those made of iron or a metal alloy that can be magnetized).
Dimensions:
Globes: Small 4.5" x 4.5" x 7.5" / Large 8½'' x 14''
