Description:

Rotates silently on its own when exposed to ambient light! The MOVA globe is the first member of a new family of objects that come quietly to life when touched by light, without wires or batteries. The globe floats at a point of perfect balance between buoyant forces and gravitational forces, and slowly turns as it feels the force of the Earth's magnetic field and the energy carried in light. Its perpetual, quiet motion brings a tranquil point of focus to a room. Add more light and watch the Earth spin faster, dim the setting and observe it slowing. It really is an amazing sight to see! The Mova globe works similarly to a compass in that the Earth's magnetic field makes this work! This latest addition to the Mova Globe line features stunning satellite imagery of the planet Earth. With this cool view of the Earth from above, all can see world through the eyes of the universe. The swirling masses of clouds over green landmasses and water bodies portray a lively, gorgeous planet - right on your mantle or desk.

1Poor QualityJul 15, 2010
By Michael L. Kenslow "Michael Kenslow"
My globe didn't last 6 month. It developed an air bubble and stopped spinning. I don't recommend this product.

5Astounding!Nov 20, 2009
By P. Williams "constant crafter"
Just the right size and amazing to watch. A perfect desk decoration for any setting. Even if you're not a "globe," person, this is such a unique grown-up toy. Be prepared for it to be handled, It's impossible to resist a hands-on inspection. I have the satellite version and it really does look like a miniature Earth gently rotating.

1DisappointedMar 24, 2011
By tomg
The globe worked great for a while, then it stopped spinning, Noticed a small air bubble had formed at the top, which means it must haved developed a small leak. The company did offer to replace the globe at a discounted price, but refused to swap for a new one...My advise keep your money, and if you own one good luck

3Not that impressedApr 02, 2011
By NCC1912 "ncc1912"
Wasn't too impressed with this purchase. Though it is a very attractive piece, its small size and translucency doesn't too much for the onlooker. In other words, it is not something you would be mesmerized with nor provide a thought provoking distraction when working hard in your office; which is what I was looking for. It's "OK".

5Great Combination of aesthetics and technologyJul 28, 2010
By Robt C
I first saw one of these in a gift shop in Laguna Beach, CA. Was immediately captivated and bought one. I liked it so much I bought another one on Amazon for a friend. It's a great combination of creative technology and nice aesthetics. No batteries--all you need is a little light and some of the earth's magnetic field. The thing looks almost magical as it rotates.

PS - I had a question and contacted the vendor. They were responsive and helpful.
