Globe
This article is on a planet-representation device. For other uses, see globe (disambiguation).
A globe is a three-dimensional scale model of a spheroid celestial body such as a planet, star, or moon, in particular Earth, or, alternatively, a spherical representation of the sky with the stars (but without the Sun, Moon, or planets, because their positions vary relative to those of the stars; but, the ecliptic, along which the Sun moves, is indicated). The word globe comes from the Latin word globus, meaning round mass or sphere.
