Columbus Globe Pluto 40cm (63008)

The Universe series by Columbus features astronomical globes that combine traditional craftsmanship with modern planetary research. These globes provide detailed and accurate representations of the moons and planets in our solar system.

Columbus Planetary Globe – 40 cm Diameter

This globe is crafted from durable acrylic glass, which is both break and heat resistant. Its surface is hand-covered to ensure a premium finish. The base and meridian are made of brushed stainless steel with a matte finish, offering durability and elegance. Each 40 cm acrylic sphere is carefully laminated by hand, with the 12 map segments applied with great attention to detail by professional laminators. This meticulous process results in a high-quality product made in Germany.

Realistic Planetary Details

Special care has been taken to ensure realistic representation of planetary surfaces and their colors:

• Jupiter: Displays distinct stripes representing its gas layers, easily distinguishable by color.

• Europa (Jupiter’s Moon): Features thick scratch marks on its ice crust with minimal visible impact craters.

• Mars, Venus, and Pluto: Accurately reflect their unique surface structures and characteristics.

These globes are both decorative and scientifically accurate, making them unmatched in quality compared to other planetary globes currently available.

Perfect for Various Uses
