]]> Space Electronics has developed a simulator that rotates a payload on a frictionless gas bearing and measures the decay in spin rate resulting from the mechanical losses. Losses corresponding to retarding torques as small as 0.001 lb-inch can be measured.

This device can also be instrumented to measure the net moment of inertia of the payload as well as the gross moment of inertia of the whole rotating assembly.
