Globes are always fun to have around and they are educational, too.
Small kids especially love spinning them (adults, too). However,
this new globe doesn't spin. In fact, it isn't even attached to
anything. It is suspended by magnets from above and below. As soon
as you plug in the globe, the magnets generate power and it starts
to float.
