One quarter of the sphere has been cut away to reveal a permanent magnet, photoelectric cells, and a motor. This is not a dinky toy. Everything about it is top quality. I consider it first class house jewelry for men and equally fascinating to every woman who looks at it. This is something special. I own one. It was a present from my brother and it amazes everyone. In the replies to my video some people disagreed with my statement that the bar at the top of the shaft is a magnet. I highly recommend going to and watching the inventor's explanation of how it works. He clearly states that there is a magnet fixed to the top of the shaft to prevent the shaft from turning, therefore the motor (with globe attached) rotates around the shaft. For those interested in technical details search USA Patent 6,853,283,6,937,125 It's all there with lots of diagrams. You won't have to cut your Mova Globe open. Have fun. Orville.
