Precession of a Gyroscope: in defiance of gravity this gyroscope hangs attached only at one end. The physics and vector nature of angular momentum! Notice that as the disk of gyroscope slows down, its axis begins to tilt downward, but interestingly its speed of precession around the vertical increases. Timed my catch just before it fell.

Precession of a Gyroscope: in defiance of gravity this gyroscope is supported only at one end. The physics and vector nature of angular momentum! Note that as friction slows the rotor of the gyroscope down, the precession rotation rate gets faster and faster. After some energy loss the gyroscope contacts the table and vibrations move the unit around while the angular momentum maintains its orientation.
