The "Dzhanibekov effect", seen in a rotating object where it will flip its axis by 180 degrees, is demonstrated in microgravity with our camera.

🔩 An unexpected twist in space The Dzhanibekov effect: an object rotating in zero gravity suddenly flips its axis of rotation. This occurs due to differences in the moments of inertia across the three axes, causing rotational instability. Demonstrated by Vladimir Dzhanibekov in 1985, this phenomenon shows how even a simple nut behaves unpredictably in orbit. 🤔

The Dzhanibekov Effect: Spin any object with three different moments of inertia in zero gravity. The object will spin stably for a few seconds, then suddenly flip 180° while continuing its rotation, then flip back a few seconds later. It does this indefinitely.

NASA astronaut demonstrating the Dzhanibekov effect. An astronaut noticed this physical behavior of a handle, that turned out to be the proof of a theorem: the tennis racket theorem (also dubbed the Dzhanibekov effect) The Tennis Racket Theorem states that an object with three unique moments of inertia, rotation about the axis of intermediate moment of inertia is unstable, while rotation about the other two axis is stable. The effect is named after the Russian cosmonaut Vladimir Dzhanibekov who discovered this phenomenon while in space in 1985.

Astronomia Solar is a miniature model of our system, interpreted as a high jewelry creation. Among the many planets it features, one of them is more familiar than the others. It's Earth, rotating around the red sun and on its own axis.

🥳 The launches continue with a brand new feature: Editing your videos directly in Flow. Starting with object insertion, just select where you want your object and describe it. Flow will then both generate the object and seamlessly integrate it into your clip.

This is why we can’t just roll over and let PBS die. This is the most thorough piece I’ve seen about the manosphere and its effect on our lives I’ve seen done by a news entity. Don’t throw in the towel, we can’t afford to.

In one of the videos released by the U.S. Department of Defense as part of its UFO files disclosure, a star-shaped object can be seen moving erratically across the sky in sharp zigzags. Its origin is not explained in the documents. The video is from 2013.
