THIS GLOBE OF THE EARTH is steel; weigt
tons, diameter 10 feet, circumference 31 feet, 5/indes
The globe is oriented so that its axis parallels DFN14
of the earth underfoot, its North Pole pointing to the
12 - M
North Star. 'On this scale (1 inch to 64 miles), the great
est ocean depth, 34,218 feet just east of the Philipines-
would be only 1/10 of an inch below the surface & this
ball, showing that, compared with the bulk of the early
the great oceans are relatively only a thin covering of water.
The deepest man has gone beneath the surface of the earth
(William Beebe, who descended 2,200 feet into the ocean
at Bermuda), would on this scale be scarcely through the
paint-1/150 of an inch down. The world's highest
mountain (Mt. Everest in the Himalayas, 29,141 feet).
would project less than 1/10 of an inch from this globe's
surface.
