Description: 1977 Farquhar Earth in Space Globe~Celestial Transparent Globe~RARE. A vintage transparent celestial globe with internal terrestrial globe made of plexiglass with a modern base and built-in compass. The globe is dated 1977 and was produced by Robert Farquhar of Philadelphia, PA. The Farquhar Artifact is a model with an Earth globe at the center, a surrounding clear globe representing the stars, and a small yellow ball on a movable arm to represent the sun. It is a three dimensional geocentric model with the Earth at the center and stars of varying distance from the Earth projected onto the surrounding plexiglass celestial sphere. The Farquhar Globe is a model that allows you to rotate the Earth, holding the Sun and stars still, or to hold the Earth still and move the Sun and globe of stars around it. The globe is in good condition. As this item is transparent it was extremely difficult to get good photos of it, but please look closely at the photos prior to purchasing.
