...."GP-B's gyroscopes are the roundest objects ever made. Engineers at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center polished them to within 0.01 microns (less than 40 atom-widths) of perfect sphericity".....
Quartz Balls
...r6....
Smooth beyond night,
They reflect each light,
Smooth beyond day,
They reflect each ray.
Equinimity of radii,
Balanced for Earths sky.
Balls in space,
Gravity they chase.
Spheres precessed,
In microns expressed.
Rest in the beauty,
Rest in the sound,
Rest in the proximity,
Of spherically round.
