    From the page: "dimsum4u 07/15/09 So um...what's the use of these perfect balls? I don't see a benefit besides the fact that they are life size replicas of my own. "

    Cool. From the page: "dimsum4u: So um...whats the use of these perfect balls? I don't see a benefit besides the fact that they are life size replicas of my own."

    I'm guessing the purpose is for standards. A kilogram isn't a kilogram unless you have something that weighs exactly one kilogram. Otherwise there is nothing to compare mass to. And you have two, so you can tell if either one has changed, like has happened to previously made prototypes.

    http://einstein.stanford.edu/TECH/technology1.html a lot of people are questioning the purpose of these things. I'm not sure if they could be used in a gyroscope similar to the one in gravity probe b, but it's my best guess.

    A psychologist would ask: why are men spending so much time, cash and effort to make a useless set of "perfect" BALLS? And why two, why not one?
