Transform your space with the Smithsonian Glowing 3D Solar System Kit—a hands-on activity and display piece all in one. The set includes an LED-lit Sun and eight LED planets, all controllable via a remote, with an auto-off timer feature so you can set it and forget it. Designed to mount on a wall or ceiling, this kit brings displays of the solar system indoors for both play and educational value.

Developed in collaboration with the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum, the kit offers real-world context and museum-inspired design, making it especially meaningful for young space enthusiasts.

Ages 8 and up, the kit includes everything needed for installation (except 5 AAA batteries) and invites exploration, curiosity and display flair. Perfect for bedrooms, classrooms or science corners, it doubles as a night-light and a visual statement.
