    If you drop a spinning gyroscope alongside a regular object, the gyroscope
    will not simply fall straight down. It will follow a slower spiraling
    path and land after the other object.

    If you drop it in vacuum it falls straight down. If you drop it in
    air you may get aerodyanmic effects that depend on the shape and
    orientation of the gyroscope.
