A tellurium (also known as a planetarium, orrery, or loxocosm) is a fascinating mechanical device that demonstrates the movement of planets around the sun. This model features the sun, the earth, and the moon, allowing for a clear illustration of the moon phases as well as the occurrence of solar and lunar eclipses. The formation of seasons is also highlighted through the visible tilt of the Earth's axis, reflecting reality. A tellurium is excellent for understanding astronomical relationships - perfect as an explanation for both young and old!

In addition to the assembly instructions, the kit includes a user manual that provides an overview of the tellurium's capabilities. Easy assembly: All parts can be easily pushed out and assembled directly. Only a bit of wood glue or all-purpose adhesive and a cutter for trimming the axes are needed. Building this complex device will bring you much joy, and afterwards, you'll have a true eye-catcher for your study, office, or living room!
