Globes can be used to determine when it will be "light or dark" in different countries.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Globes are a "miniature spherical representation" of the Earth as it appears from the space. They consist of the projection of a world map on it. The day and night cycle on the earth is due to its "rotation around the sun".
The sun-facing side of the Earth has day and the opposite side has night. The globes can thus help us determine whether it would be a day or night in a country by comparing it to the status of a country in the other vertical hemisphere.
