Electronic Saturn globe

The electronic Saturn globe is a three-dimensional rotatable and tiltable precision instrument. The globe shows this planet over 10000 years on smaller scale, with REAL TIME PROCESSING and a continuous date and time indication, in a way which is true to nature. Position of Saturn accurate to 1 angular second, surface with strips of clouds, daytime side, night-time side and transition zone. The globe circuit shows the orbital movement of the moons of Saturn in real time, their tracks taking into account the planetary shadow and three different processing times. The date and time of their maximum angular distance to the east (elongation) can be called up, as can the position angle, the angular distance from the centre of Saturn etc. In addition: different networks of parallels and meridians, 3 Saturn magnifications (telescope) and three extensions of the sector of sky. The extension shows planets and stars near the orbit of Saturn. Information on the planets, stars and phenomena via boards which can be switched from one to the other. When covered, concerning entry and emergence times, transit angles etc. The colour of the sky is adapted to the solar attitude in question. The SPACEGLOBE is self-explanatory. Information about planetary rotation, the compression of Saturn, heliocentric movement etc. in the accompanying booklet.
