Globe
Thousands of years ago, when there were no space shuttles or rockets sending down images of the Earth from space, people had no way of knowing what our planet looked like. To get a better idea about the Earth, to be able to visualise it, and to know where exactly the continents and oceans lay on its spherical surface, the ancient people created the globe. The first globes were built by the ancient Greeks around 150 BCE.
What is a globe?
A globe is a three-dimensional model of the Earth in miniature (i.e., in a greatly reduced size). It is a true representation of the Earth. A globe is more accurate than a flat map, as it follows the curvature of the Earth. It also gives us the correct shape and size of continents and countries, and shows distances and directions without distortion.
Which of the following are correct : (a) Globe is a Miniature form of the earth. (b) On the globe, countries, continents and oceans are shown in their correct size.
