These Glass Marble Pendant Galaxys are very cool! I think they're affordable too. Some not so much.

There's dozens more but some do get pricey. I JUST saw some of the high dollar ones.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    I wonder if these work like on Men In Black.
    I don't want contorted Vincent D'Onofrio coming after me.

    No, but I was thinking about you might like them too being an astronomer like me. I almost put a reference to you Dave. ;)

    I almost bought one for 73.00 but the moon hovering around it's planet was touching it. It looked like the planet was passing a little gas so I didn't order it. I think it's drastically reduced too.


    There's another Glass Co. called "The Glass Eye" that makes planetary and galaxy Paper Weights that caught my eye 10+ years ago. When I saw them on display in a "The Frog Hole" ( I think they were called that. There were a few scattered around these Southern States back then.) gift shop they were full price. They started at about 100.00 I think and I just couldn't bring myself to buying one. I think I'll check the web now for those paperweights too. I quickly found their site:

    Tony, these scenes are really amazing. I've never seen anything like this where they're constructed in 3d, with depth.

    I thought about the Men in Black Cat's Galaxy ball myself when I saw these! B):)

    Here's another Glass pendant Planet/Galaxy maker I just found. No pricing that I could see yet but his work is VERY NICE! Looks to be the same size pendants. But there seems to be more bubbles in these.

    My friend in Texas does some good pendants and whatnot. He focuses mostly on realistic flowers. Usually pretty cheap too.
