2

What’s that Bobby? Yinz learned about the solar system in school today? That’s great! Space is a big and fascinating thing. You think you want to be an astronaut now when you grow up? Well, it’s great to have dreams and make big plans. But let’s start with something a little smaller. How about we get you this 3D crystal solar system model to celebrate? You can watch it every night and dream about the stars!

A solar system model is a popular school project that teaches children about the relative positions of planets in the solar system. You can create a homemade version using cardboard, Styrofoam balls, and markers. If you don’t need to create your own for a project and would just like a model for reference, consider an orrery. This model can be moved and adjusted to show the paths of the planets in orbit. Generally, the planets spin on metal rods around the Sun. Or, consider a 3D glass model. These models don’t spin independently, but can be used to show relative planet positions and light up at night.

This 3D crystal solar system model brings the vast expanse of space right to your fingertips!

Put the entirety of our solar system in the palm of your hand with this 3D crystal ball model! This elegantly crafted glass orb measures approximately 3.15 inches in diameter and fits on an included base. The base comes with an embedded LED light inside, that can change to seven different lighting colors! You can enjoy your solar system both day and night. It even makes a perfect bedside night light for a child’s bedroom.

There are 8 planets included in this model – Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Despite a lot of disagreement in the scientific community, Pluto is not depicted as a planet in this 3D model. The Sun is located directly in the center, with each of the planets on a circular ring depicting their orbit. Each planet is scaled to represent its size in relation to the other bodies in the solar system. This is a heliocentric, or sun-centered, model.

Your crystal ball model solar system will arrive packed in a gift-ready box! It makes a perfect educational gift for a child who has an interest in space. Consider gifting for Christmas or a birthday! It also makes an excellent selection as a gift for a teacher. It fits beautifully on a desk and adds a touch of elegance to any room.
