The world's most advanced world globe, it rotates silently inside a clear acrylic sphere. Powered by natural light, Mova Globes require no cords, no batteries only the light provided by the fluorescent or incandescent bulbs in your room or office, or the natural light flowing through your windows. Mova Globes faithfully recreate the earth's rotation in space, on your desktop, or in the palm of your hand.

The absolutely silent and mesmerizing rotation of a Mova Globe is made possible by advances in solar power and drive technologies. Mova Globes are levitated inside the acrylic sphere in a clear, optical-quality fluid This allows for almost frictionless and continuous rotation, regardless the basic laws of physics.When you pick up a Mova Globe, it will immediately remind you of the "eye balls" that always look up no matter how fast you turn the outer sphere. When you place it on its stand, it takes a few seconds to stabilize and then the inner sphere begins slowly turning. The speed will be about 3 to 4 RPM in an average room.

The mechanism within these globes is remarkable. Inside each Mova Globe is a patented, ultra low friction drive mechanism, and a set of solar collectors. The Mova Globe globe allows enough light energy to pass through to power the drive mechanism. Mova Globes operate on a mere 1 to 5 millionth of a watt of electricity! The fluid not only allows the globe to turn with little outside friction, but serves to optically project the turning globe image onto the clear outer shell. This creates a visual perception that the globe is spinning on the 3- fingered acrylic base. It's a fascinating optical illusion, which contributes to the Mova Globe mystique.Additional information is provided in the documentation that come with the globe. Light and the Earth's magnetic field are essential to its operation. The very sensitive solar cells power an unusual custom designed outer-rotor type motor that turns the inner sphere. a large disk operates as a compass to provide a force for the motor to turn against. Even your cleverest guests will think long and hard about what makes it work.Mova Globes are as close to perpetual motion as is currently possible!

Set a Mova Globe on a desk or table top. Or, on a rich surface such as silk or marble. You'll be amazed at the effect! Mova Globes are truly magic in motion.

A 3-fingered acrylic base is included with every Mova Globe. Or, you can place Mova on the base of your choice.
I have had an early 6.5-inch prototype running on my coffee table for several years and still find myself staring at it! The 6.5-inch globes have been available for a few years at nearly $600! These smaller ones cost much less and I personally like the size better. * No batteries and or wires. * Silent and hypnotic motion. * 4.5 inches in diameter. * Includes an informative guide.

  • This is proof of perpetual motion energy! The Big Oil NWO has been hiding this from us for so long!

    Cover up! Conspiracy! The end is NIGH! Head for the hills!
