Video of the Day: Glowing Earth and Constellation Globe

May 16 2008, 2:00pm CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr

Today's Gadget Video Report features an interesting glowing Globe that shows geographic information by day and star maps by night.

At night this globe shows 88 constellations including their names.

The 21cm geographical globe is constructed from high-impact water-resistant material and mounted on a brass stand.
By day it shows political boundaries, natural features, capitals and major cities by population at a scale of 1:60,000,000. By night via the light-reactive sensor this unique product is then transformed into an illuminated map of the stars.

The Earth & Constellation Globe sells on Amazon UK for £40.62. I could not find it in a U.S. store yet.
