To learn the distance between two locations, select "Distance" and touch two points on the globe. The globe will also state the flying time between the selected locations.

While exploring with the Magic Pen, the country or state you select may be too small for the Magic Pen to identify. When this happens, the Explorer will announce a series of possible countries or states and corresponding colours?"EI Salvador, touch green, Nicaragua, touch yellow." Turn to the globe's Compass Rose, located in the North Atlantic Ocean and touch the Magic Pen to the part of the Compass Rose (arrow or circle) that is the colour of the area you would like to select. The Explorer will say the area's name and the fact you selected.
