New Science Accessory for Education and Inspiration

  • Small workshop  is set to create the first modern physical starmap in 3d space
  • The accurate map offers not only inspiration and aesthetics but playful learning possibility as well trough scientific accuracy and many colorful interaction
We are a small group of enthusiasts, who believe in enriching life trough inspiring and informative projects with personal touch. We create science and educational tools, toys and gadgets to inspire. 
Let us introduce the Starmap Light, our accurate physical map of the nearby stars in 3D space.
A science toy, a night lamp - a tabletop universe. Your curiosity made palpable - our cozy corner in the galaxy lights up at your fingertips.
 
Details - Play and learn

The starmap is  covering a 10 light year radius with our Sun in the center. All the stars come dis-attached, so the assembly is a learning experience itself, specially that every star has a colorful and informative description, and is colored and scaled appropriate to its type and size.
Even more the map is full of interesting paces in our galaxy and galactic neighborhood in real life scale. So if the Proxima is 4cm away, you will need to walk dozens of meters to the nearest black hole! This makes the map a perfect game as well, if placed in the center of a room or field to create a better sense of the actual distances in our local stellar neighborhood!
The map comes with a string, with a cm scale, so measuring distances between stars and converting them to real light year units is a breeze and a fun.
