When NASA upgraded their satellite digital imagery of the Earth (The Blue Marble Project), the EarthBall was created for the Winter Olympics to help premiere the most modern images from space. The result was the most realistic replicas ever made, an astronaut's view of Earth. This large inflatable globe can rotate on a pedestal or suspended to be part of a display. The EarthBall is great for parades, Earth Day events, concerts, exhibitions, tradeshows, and special events.

You can clearly see: Landforms, Terrain, Climate features,  Cloud patterns, Relief contour of the ocean’s floor, The magnificent reflection of coral reefs.

Every EarthBall comes with the 20 page Global Handbook, chock full of games, activities & resources for Earth adventurers of all ages. Each EarthBall also displays 'NightGlow Cities', allowing you to see the world's cities glowing brightly at night.

Special satellite imagery has been printed onto the globe with glow-in-the-dark ink that enables you to see the world's cities as they actually appear from space at night.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The planet is shown as a three-dimensional sphere including interesting cloud formations and glow in the dark cities.

Globes are easy to inflate and easy to display as there is a place to hang the globe from the North Pole.
     

One lucky EarthBall travelled in the NASA Space Shuttle Atlantis and was launched into orbit with seven astronauts. During their 9 day mission, comprising 143 Earth orbits and 3.7 million miles, the crew of STS-45 deployed the Earthball as an assistant in filming the educational video "The Atmosphere Below."

With the Apollo moon projects came the first images of the Earth as seen from space. It was an image that no human had seen before. Our small blue planet floating in space. The Earth image promotes the understanding that we are in this world together and it is best to treat each other and the natural world peacefully.
