I'm a nerd too, I guess, because I love reading these stories... very cool experiment to prove the theory.

I get all curious how they measured .039 of an arcsecond per year. That just wobbles my mind.

If Einstein had been wrong in his ideas then the gyros should have spun unhindered by external forces (pressure, heat, magnetic field, gravity, and electrical charges).

Einstein wins again!

pfff, I confirmed it years ago when I was a child watching the north star... I always ended up looking at the ground after some time.
