"One way to get around the constitutional prohibition is not to call it a foreign base, but allow foreign forces continuous access on a rotational basis."

Rather than focus on brute force, they obsess over the physics of lateral velocity, rotational radius and acceleration paths.

The landing on a twisting flip presents additional challenges, Kuhn said, as gymnasts must absorb rotational forces to stop the twist while also controlling the landing vertically.

In Optica Publishing Group journal Applied Optics, the researchers report preliminary observational data from the rotational sensor, which is based on a 2-km long fiber-optic gyroscope.

“I feel like, for me anyways, the most difficult thing for pitching is staying closed because it is such a rotational movement.”
