About This Product
Turning the handle lets a class follow the Earth through a day and a year, see why the tilted axis gives longer days and stronger sunlight in summer, and track the Moon through its phases over a synodic month of about 29.5 days. Lining up the three bodies shows the umbra and penumbra of solar and lunar eclipses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the model show eclipses?
Yes. When the Sun, Earth and Moon are lined up, the LED sun casts umbra and penumbra shadows for solar eclipses, and the Earth’s shadow falls on the Moon for lunar eclipses.
How is the model moved?
A manual drive handle turns the gear train, and it can be run forwards or backwards.
