7. Foucault pendulum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foucault_pendulum

   The pendulum was introduced in 1851 and was the first experiment to give simple, direct evidence of the Earth's rotation. Foucault followed up in 1852 with a gyroscope experiment to further demonstrate the Earth's rotation. Foucault pendulums today are popular displays in science museums and universities. [1]
