Does anyone know how long these Chikyu Goma tops are capable of spinning for? Thanx in advance :)

@guldemondje Well that ones just a toy but you can use it to demonstrate some principles of physics. Gyroscopes are however used quite widely and have more uses than you think: "Applications include: navigation (INS) when magnetic compasses do not work (as in the Hubble telescope) or are not precise enough (as in ICBMs) or for the stabilization of flying vehicles like radio-controlled helicopters or UAVs. Due to higher precision, gyroscopes are also used to maintain direction in tunnel mining."
