The  Stellanova Levitating Globe - Antique   just may be the coolest globe on the planet! Locations are easily identified and easy to read but the fun starts when you plug in the power adapter and watch the globe rest in thin air! Pass your hand above, below and around the globe as it continues to levitate.
The electromagnetic suspended globe is an impressive high-tech instrument. A magnetic field sensor permanently measures the height at which the globe sphere is suspended. The sensor and micro computer in the base control an electronic magnet in the upper part of the frame and therefore check the distance between globe sphere and magnetic head. An additional, permanent magnetin the base holds the sphere safely on the frame when the suspension mechanism is switched off. Comes with 110v power adapter.Colors: ANTIQUE (Globe), Black (Stand)
