The sphere will be placed inside an evacuated quartz shell, also coated with niobium, and suspended in an electrostatic field. Suspending it in this manner will allow it to spin in a near-perfect vacuum without touching anything; it will be free from all friction. The gyroscope container will be kept in a bath of liquid helium...
