Explore the Milky Way with this detailed 6" desktop globe, exclusively from Astronomy magazine.
From a dark site on a clear summer or winter night, you'll see a band of light arching across the sky. Thousands of years ago, people imagined the milk of a goddess had spilled across the heavens. The Romans called the region Via Lactea (the Milky Way). In actuality, the Milky Way is nothing less than the full structure of our galaxy seen edgewise. As 18th-century scientists began to realize this, the Roman name for a cosmic highway became our galaxy's name.
Featuring 61 constellations identified and labeled, this injection-molded 6" globe is made of long-lasting durable plastic with just a single seam between hemispheres and comes with an acrylic base with built-in magnifier and informational flyer.
