A really expensive internet connected globe. Like most globes it would have its axis on a tilt. Except this one would also show a live view of day/night, and also the clouds from satellite imagery. When you touch the base you can scrub back and forward though the past 24 hours of images.

Brilliant! Love it.

Bit my brother is a flat earther. Do you have a model for them? 🤣

Well it would certainly be cheaper to make a flat one. I’d like to see somebody puzzle how the sun could make a spotlight to selectively light part of the earth.

I saw that this exists at OMSI in Portland Oregon. Pretty cool.
