AI overview

A globe is a spherical model of Earth, another celestial body, or the celestial sphere that serves similar purposes to maps but without the distortion that flat maps create. Unlike maps, globes accurately represent the shape and relationships of geographic features, though they are scaled down in size, making them useful tools for understanding our planet and the cosmos.

Il globo è una riproduzione in scala, sufficientemente fedele, del pianeta Terra. Il termine indica genericamente un oggetto sferico e, per antonomasia, la Terra stessa. Nonostante questa abbia forma ellissoidale, o, più propriamente, di "geoide", il globo costituisce infatti una buona approssimazione.
