This Mysterious Globe Perpetually Spins With No Batteries

Summary by Krater

The video explains how Mova Globes use solar cells, low-friction liquid suspension, and the Earth's magnetic field to spin autonomously without power cords. It also tests how the globe reacts when exposed to external magnets and bright light sources.

From the video

Answers: How do Mova Globes spin forever without batteries or power cords?

• Mova Globe mechanics
• Magnetic field suspension
• Solar cell ambient light power
• Liquid suspension friction reduction
• Neodymium magnet interaction

What it concludes

• Mova Globes use interior solar cells that operate on very low ambient light passing through the globe.
• Suspending the inner sphere in liquid minimizes friction, allowing micro-currents of electricity to turn it.
• The internal magnet stays oriented with the Earth's magnetic field, allowing the motor to push off it and spin continuously.
