6" Venus Globe
Explore the fascinating and unforgiving surface of Venus with this highly-detailed 6" desktop globe from Astronomy magazine. Developed by the staff of Astronomy magazine along with USGS cartographer, Trent Hare, this globe was produced using images from the Magellan Venus Radar Mapper, gathered from thousands of microwave pulses with near-100% accuracy.
This highly detailed, injection-molded 6" desktop globe identifies 184 named geological features, as well as 10 landing sites. You’ll find many features you can see on Venus labeled, including Baltis Vallis, Vesta Rupes, Sedna Planitia, Maxwell Montes, and countless others.
Whether you're a casual astronomer or observer, or a science educator, you won't want to be without this incredible new depiction of Venus.
Each globe is made of long-lasting durable plastic with just a single seam between hemispheres and comes with a clear acrylic display base and informational flyer.
