Product Description
Inspired by the earth itself the MOVA Rotating Antique Ocean Political 4.5-Inch Diameter Desk Globe is the world's most advanced. This unique piece rotates silently without the need for batteries or power cords. Create a tasteful display in your home or office with the included 3-fingered acrylic base. The MOVA globe is powered only by natural light and the force of the earth's magnetic field. It contains an inner globe that rotates within the fixed acrylic outer shell. The space between them is filled with a clear non-toxic fluid that provides buoyancy and prevents contact between the two globes. This inner globe floating and turning in a virtually frictionless environment is akin to the earth itself. Vibrant countries stand out against the antique ivory oceans. A highly efficient drive mechanism within the inner globe ensures rotation in virtually any ambient light. Solar cells harness that energy and a magnetic element reacts to the earth's magnetic field in the manner of a common compass to provide torque. The optical properties of both the outer shell and fluid have been carefully chosen to magnify features on the inner globe. As a result the outer globe appears to rotate despite resting on the stand in quiet defiance of commonly held ideas about the laws of friction. This globe measures 7.25 inches high with the display stand. Beautiful and arresting it will form a meditative point of focus for any room.

Wow
By TechieFoodie
I saw this at the office of my colleague and ordered one for myself right away. It spins when there is some light nearby. It is a wonderful conversation piece with company and I just love having it in my living room. I bought this for a friend for Christmas last year and she and her kids loved it.

globe
By Twyla Humphrey Preising
Globe does not turn reliably no matter whether it is in the light or not. Expensive and disappointing.
