The striking MOVA 4.5 Inch Constellation Rotating Globe animates the night sky on your desk. With its pitch black background and striking silver constellations, this work of art radiates beauty.
The rotating globe also has significant educational capabilities for the star gazer or curious individual. The Greek and Roman names of the constellations are written out in silver, with English translations presented in parenthesis.
The number of constellations grew for many years with 12 belonging to the zodiac in 400 BC. 2,322 years later (1992) the International Astronomical Union formally accepted the modern list of 88 constellations, which is the popular starmap we know of today.
