About it
A spinning top is one of the oldest toys in the world, played with in many lands for thousands of years. While it spins fast, it balances on its tiny point, because a spinning thing holds the direction of its spin. As it slows, it starts to wobble, and its handle traces a slow circle; scientists call that circling precession.
This top is always spinning. Tap it to spin it much faster: it tilts and circles more widely for a few seconds, then settles back to a steady spin. Pick one of three sets of colors in the Splash tab.
