9. an artificial sphere on whose surface is drawn a map or representation of the earth or of the heavens, called in the former case a terrestrial globe, and in the latter a celestial globe.
10. terrestrial globes are made so as to revolve freely about an axis representing that of the earth. this axis turns in a vertical brass circle divided into degrees, or smaller divisions; and this represents the meridian of any station. this meridian has a motion in its own plane, so that the axis can be brought into parallelism with that of the earth at the assumed station. the meridian moves in a fixed horizontal circle of wood, called the horizon, which is divided into signs, days, etc. cheaper globes are made without these circles. celestial globes of the ordinary kind, with the drawing, as in terrestrial globes, on the outer or convex surface, represent the stars as they would appear in a mirror, or as if viewed from without the celestial sphere, and not as they appear on a map of the heavens; but globes are also made with the heavenly bodies represented on the inner surface as they appear from the earth.
