NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC
The Planet Earth Globe
Day and Night. This "day and night" globe shows day and nighttime for any time, date, and location in the world. It can be manually adjusted both forward and backward to see past, present, and future hours of daylight and darkness. A pinpoint light shows the actual location of the sun throughout the year. Unique "twilight" rings depict the three zones of dawn and dusk.
This globe has been created by the National Geographic Society's legendary cartographers using a special process that combines 17 separate layers of rich color printing with specially developed materials.  The result is a globe ball that is virtually unbreakable, with infinitely detailed spheres and place names that won't wear off.   The globe comes with a lifetime guarantee, a certificate of authenticity, and a booklet on globemaking.
Matte brass base, two gold-toned meridians.
Illuminated
  The globe features a unique cord-concealing innovation (the cord runs through the base).
