Imagine 3 rings, each supported on it's own axis of rotation, perpendicular to the last outer ring. Spin each one at a different rate and trace a few points on the inner ring. This graph resembles a prop used in the 80's movie "Space Camp". This animation was rendered with Graphing Calculator 3.5 by PacificTech http://www.pacifict.com
