This world is almost too big to hug. The Orbis 16"-diameter EarthBall now has a big brother, the new 1 Meter EarthBall. This universal toy is the largest inflatable globe one can wrap his arms around. Perfect for children, schools, conferences, public events and parades, it features the same amazing NASA satellite imagery and glow-in-the-dark city lights. The 1 Meter EarthBall also comes with the same 16-page handbook, packed with games, activities and fun.

Inspired by the original photographs of the whole Earth taken by NASA astronauts, Orbis World Globes has created the first and only inflatable globe to depict Planet Earth as it appears from outer space. Featuring the newest generation of NASA satellite imagery, the EarthBall is the most visually authentic globe available anywhere and the most fun a child can have holding the whole world in their hands! The EarthBall is the only globe to display the world's city lights with glow-in-the-dark printing, providing an exciting dimension of realism. The 16 page Global Handbook, included with every EarthBall, is packed with resources, games, activities and fun information for global explorers of all ages.
— Lorena Lopez, manager at Puzzle Zoo in Santa Monica, Calif., said that the Earth Ball is a favorite among astronomically-inclined consumers. “The sales are good,” she said. “It’s probably our best selling glow-in-the-dark product.”
— Using satellite imagery as a guide, the world’s major cities glow in the dark, recreating the view from space.
