Mova Rotating Antique Ocean Political Globe

The world’s most advanced globe the MOVA Rotating Antique Ocean Political Globe is inspired by the earth itself. It rotates silently requiring no power cords or batteries- only natural ambient light. Use this unique globe to create a tasteful display for your home or office with the included three-fingered acrylic base.The MOVA globe rotates without sound using only the energy of room light and the force of the earth’s magnetic field. This is possible because the MOVA globe contains an inner globe that rotates and within an outer shell made of clear acrylic that stays fixed in position. The thin space between the inner globe and outer shell is filled with a safe non-toxic clear fluid that buoyantly supports the inner globe and prevents contact with the outer shell. This inner globe floating and turning in a virtually friction-free environment and energized by light is analogous to the earth itself. The MOVA globe is being brought to market at a time when people everywhere will understand and appreciate this analogy.The optical properties of the outer sell and fluid are carefully chosen so that the graphic features on the surface of the inner globe are magnified and appear to be on the outer surface of the outer shell. This means that the outer shell actually appears to move. The MOVA globe appears to rotate despite of resting on the stand in quiet defiance of commonly held ideas about the laws of friction.A carefully designed highly efficient drive mechanism within the inner globe drives the rotation in virtually any ambient light. Energy for the drive is provided by advanced solar cells within the inner globe which are illuminated by the light passing through the globe surface. The drive mechanism includes a magnetic element that reacts with the earth’s magnetic field much as a common compass does to provide torque to drive the globe.All of these elements cooperate to create a beautiful magical object that provides a meditative point of focus to any room.
