The compound word for "caterpillar" and "globe" would be "caterglobe."
The frosted globe gave the light a soft glow.I showed the boy where he was on the globe of the world.
a hemisphere.
The earliest known globe was constructed by the scholar Crates of Mallus in Cilicia (now Çukurova in modern-day Turkey) around 150 BC. An ancient celestial globe that still exists was made about 150 AD as part of a sculpture, called the Farnese Atlas, in the Naples Museum, Naples, Italy.[1] The first globe of the Old World was constructed in the Muslim world during the Middle Ages.[2] The oldest existing terrestrial globe was made by Martin Behaim in Nürnberg, Germany, in 1474.[1] A facsimile globe showing America was made by Martin Waldseemueller in 1507. Another early globe, the Hunt-Lenox Globe, ca. 1507, is thought to be the source of the phrase "Here be dragons." Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globe#History
The equator
72 number of meridians can be drawn on the globe at 5 degree interval
On a globe, there are 18 parallels (lines of latitude) that can be drawn at 10-degree intervals from the equator at 0° up to the poles at 90° north and 90° south. For meridians (lines of longitude), there are 36 that can be drawn at 10-degree intervals, ranging from 0° to 360°. Thus, in total, there are 54 lines (18 parallels and 36 meridians) on the globe at 10-degree intervals.
Going from 0 to 90 both north and south, 0, 15,30,45,60,75,90 would be 13 total. You can only count 0 once.
If drawn on a globe at intervals of one degree, there would be 178 lines and two points.
A globe can have 36 meridians drawn at 10-degree intervals. This is because meridians are lines of longitude that extend from the North Pole to the South Pole, and they are measured from 0 degrees (the Prime Meridian) to 360 degrees. Dividing the 360 degrees by 10 degrees gives 36 meridians.
A globe can have parallels drawn at 10-degree intervals ranging from 0 degrees at the Equator to 90 degrees at the poles. Since there are 180 degrees of latitude (90 degrees north and 90 degrees south), this results in a total of 19 parallels in each hemisphere, plus the Equator, making 39 parallels in total.
Looking at a sphere, the Earth, from the side, i.e. - the equator, eliminating each 'pole' position, which would appear as 'points', as opposed to 'lines', lines drawn at one degree intervals from top (North) to bottom (South), would number 178; given that there are 180 degrees from North to South.
There are 24 x 60 = 1440 minutes in one day (24 hours) Therefore there are 1440 meridians at one minute intervals.

"Parallels" of latitude. Those are the lines that are drawn horizontal on the globe or map.
