This unique and fun globe shows the traditional map of the Earth by day and transforms into a map of the stars by night! The Illuminated Globe - Earth and Star Constellations features oceans, countries, capital and major cities, and longitude and latitude lines for viewing and studying. When in a dark room, however, glowing stars, planets, and constellations appear. Find Leo the Lion and Ursa Major and Minor (the Big and Little Dipper). Learn where the stars align. This 2-in-1 globe sits on a silver stand and can be powered by batteries or with a micro USB cable. A fantastic Christmas or birthday gift.
