Editing Armillary sphere (section)

== Paralympic Games ==
An artwork-based model of an Armillary sphere has been used since the March 1, 2014 to light the [[Paralympic]] heritage flame at [[Stoke Mandeville Stadium]], United Kingdom.  The sphere includes a wheelchair that the user can rotate to spark the flame as part of a ceremony to celebrate the past, present and future of the Paralympic Movement in the UK.  The Armillary Sphere was created by artist [[Jon Bausor]] and will be used for future Heritage Flame events.  The flame in the first-ever ceremony was lit by [[London 2012]] gold medallist [[Hannah Cockroft]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.paralympic.org/news/first-ever-heritage-flame-lit-stoke-mandeville-historic-moment-paralympic-movement |title=First ever Heritage Flame lit at Stoke Mandeville in a historic moment for Paralympic Movement |date=3 January 2014 |website=www.paralympic.org}}</ref>
