Orreries with planets orbiting individually at proportionate rates. Ferguson's, Helios, & other solar system orreries, fine & educational.
Our Large Fergusson's Orrery is a beautifully hand made working representation of the Solar System out to Saturn. It can be run on the electric motor which will reproduce a one year cycle every 5 minutes, or hand cranked. Set in a stained American White Oak case the mechanism is produced in brass and hand assembled in a workshop in Berkshire. All the components are produced in the UK. The case features the signs of the zodiac printed onto brass plates.
The Copernican Orrery kit assembles to make a working model of the Solar System including Mercury, Venus and the Earth and Moon. It shows the relative movements of the planets around the Sun, and the Moon around the Earth. The Sun contains a light source which can be used to demonstrate how night and day, the phases of the Moon and the seasons are produced. This is an excellent model that can be used for personal amusement or as an aid to teaching.
The Helios Orrery is a fully electric model showing the planets orbiting the Sun at their correct relative speeds with a removable Star dome. The planets from Mercury to Saturn orbit the Sun at their correct relative speeds and the Moon orbits the Earth in synchrony.

With this portable planetarium you can determine the planets' positions in the solar system at any time from 1970 to 2049.
Planetica can be used in both hemispheres and is set to the solar time at the place of use. If necessary, allow for summer/winter time differences.
Planetica depicts the movement of the first seven planets of the solar system whose orbits are close to the eclipt..
