The gyroscope once known as the rotascope served to illustrate rotating body dynamics and rotation composition. Foucault’s mounted form reveals earth rotation by conserving a fixed rotation plane, while Anschutz-Kampfe’s device checks mariner’s compass accuracy. Additional roles include steering systems and balance aids in early flying machines and a proposed monorail concept.

Prospector Gone From Klondike Gold Region
