Curious Minds Did You Know? An aeroplane uses multiple gyroscopes to navigate!
This mini gyroscope is a classic toy that defies the power of gravity! A gyroscope is a disk that when rotating, the axis of rotation can assume any orientation by itself and is unaffected by moving or rotating the mounting on which it sits.
Mount it on a piece of string, balance it on the end of a stick or even the tip of your nose and watch the gyroscope remain balanced!
It is operated using the enclosed pull-cord and comes in a variety of different colours.
A brilliant gift for a young, excited and inquisitive mind. Ideal to foster curiosity and encourage scientific learning on rainy days and a fantastic school holiday activity.
The Gyroscope measures 6cm across.
