 beautiful at night. gorgeous globeJan 06, 2009
By astute shopper

I bought this for my older son (23) who has always had an interest in Astronomy. Plug it in. It looks like a regular globe during day, then, gradually as it gets dark the celestial skies softly glow from a background field of dark blue. He loves it. Just a real fun gift.

Great concept.Apr 24, 2008
By HB
It's really an interesting toy that converts from an everyday, normal globe you would see in a school classroom into a constellation star matrix when the lights go out. A constellation book to complement this product would be recommended.

Fascinations Celestial 8" GlobeMay 19, 2011
By Mamoon
We decided to purchase this globe based on the other views that were written for our son's 8th birthday. We were not disappointed. This globe is very sturdy, well made, and is very attractive. It makes a wonderful night light, and comes on automatically when the room darkens. My son rated it five-stars. Our other son wants one now too. They only negative commet my son had was it was a bit smaller than what he thought it was going to be. I think it's just fine and doesn't take up too much room. Perfect for nightstand or desk. Very cool.

Love the creation, hate the qualityApr 05, 2011
By dice1708
The product is good overall. I especially love the make-up of the countries, the details are clear and readable. I can learn greatly from it. They use names for each countries instead of numbers to point out the smaller ones. The globe at night is stunningly beautiful and the lighting brings serenity. However, the 2nd day in which i received this globe, the electrical wires burnt when I plugged in the socket. Perhaps the voltage is not compatible in different countries. Anyways, I strongly recommend people to buy this. Check out the voltage reading before you plugs.
