Sci-fi films have a long history of prop reuse, with one of the most well-known examples being the 1956 film 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒃𝒊𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒕. This Armillary Sphere, also known as the "Astrogator," played a significant role inside the spaceship. It was made over for use again in the 1960 film 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑻𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝑴𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒆.   Find out more about this prop and others at bit.ly/Prop014

What am I doing in this expansive place? Shopping for dinner with my dear @valeriiaandreeva1847 💖 Officially my fave mall @ibnbattutamall Soooo many … dates! And exotic food items … and all my fave staples too which ended up in the cart… lol. There is even an Armillary Sphere in the Egypt Court. Namesake, Ibn Battuta relied on astronomy to help navigate his journey. The Armillary Sphere is a tool he used to study astronomy. Ibn Battuta, was a Berber Maghrebi scholar and explorer who travelled extensively in the lands of Afro-Eurasia, largely in the Muslim world. He travelled more than any other explorer in pre-modern history, totalling around 117,000 km. The shopping mall is themed to all the lands he explored 🤎💫 #ibnbattutamall #ExploreIBM #armillarysphere #exploring #astronomygeek #followthestars (at Ibn Battuta Mall) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr0Due4PPmo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
