Floor Globes- A Journey into a Three Dimensional World

by guestpost on March 15, 2010

We all know that the earth’s surface is not flat. However, we know this at an intellectual level. Reality strikes when you look at the earth in three dimensions. Floor globes bring out this reality in an amazing way. They look grand. They teach you that the earth’s axis is tilted. This would mean that as the earth rotates around its axis our country changes position and is not always right side up. Why then are we not flung away from the earth? This ignites thought similar to those of Newton when he pondered why objects fall to the ground. Floor globes not only help you learn geography, but also science.
