Empowering the Future of Science Education

Bring astronomy lessons to life with the United Scientific® Earth Sun Planetarium, a hands-on solar system model designed to clearly demonstrate how the Earth, Moon, and Sun interact. This classroom planetarium makes complex astronomical concepts—such as seasons, eclipses, and lunar phases—easy to visualize through engaging, interactive demonstrations.

The included LED-illuminated Sun projects realistic light onto the Earth, showing how the tilt of the Earth’s axis creates seasonal changes and how shadows are cast during lunar phases and eclipses. As students rotate the Earth on its axis and orbit it around the Sun, the Moon model revolves around the Earth, accurately replicating natural celestial movements.

Perfect for classrooms, science labs, or homeschooling, this durable planetarium model provides a tactile, visual tool to deepen understanding of astronomy, Earth science, and physics concepts.
