Product Description
This is a model of Proxima Centauri to scale with its known Terrestrial planet (Proxima Centauri b)
Proxima itself is actually a tiny sun, the relation between the two being closer to Jupiter - Earth rather than Sun - Earth. As such in order to further provide a size refference point, a Jupiter globe to scale is also provided.
The tiny terrestrial planet itself is coloured as having a clear day & night side. This is a refference to the fact that Proxima Centauri b is almost certainly tidal locked to its parent star, thus having an eternal "day" and "night" side.
