This is fascinating! I actually recognized this phenomenon for the first time many years ago when I would flip my remote control. It would always make that half turn! Pretty awesome to find out the reason why! Thanks for posting this Dave!

I'm glad to know we're not going to flip out here on earth!

And for those that are smart enough to know what they don't know.

That was a very interesting video!
