I don’t usually fall for useless desktop accessories, but when I saw this 3D Living World model of the Milky Way, my brain started trying to convince me that I couldn’t live without one. Each 12 X 12 cm glass cube is created using real space data collected from Japan’s National Astronomical Observatory and holds 80,000 laser etched stars. Unfortunately, the privilege of holding a galaxy in the palm of your hand comes at a very steep price: $770.

Wow, $770? Maybe when it hits walmart I will buy it
Sounds like it’s priced to land on CEO desks across the land…
