Constructing this mechanical model of the solar system is only half the fun. Once the pieces of the orrery are in place, turn the crank to activate the LED light in the sun and send the planets orbiting at their correct speeds. Standing 14 inches tall and featuring a hidden assembly of gears in the base that adds beautiful complexity to the movement, this deluxe building project is a marvel to behold! This product was designed, developed and rigorously play tested in Minnesota. Clear & precise instructions were written by our internal industrial designer for assembly success. It was carefully manufactured through close partnerships with reputable factories in China, and conforms to the highest standards of quality and safety.
