earth, or jupiter?

Geekiest stop of my visit to Richmond, when I saw the atlas obscura article on The Grand Kugel I knew I'd have to swing by. Gotta love a massive sculpture that's also an interactive science experiment! ❤

 

I only had time on a day the museum was closed, but that also meant I had the 29 ton globe all to myself. I had a little fun spinning it every which way and taking different exposures to see what looks coolest. With a long exposure it looks more like a gas giant. 😄
