What's the roundest human-made object ever made? One of Einstein's most bizarre predictions led to a pretty dang spherical ball bearing because of course it did.

@badastro Glad you talk about the problems with X! Would've appreciated it if you had mentioned your presence here, though.

Oh yeah, I know about that. I figured out how to put the niobium coating on those things without affecting the sphericity in any meaningful way. Even a few angstroms of irregularity and the thing could shatter in space and ruin the experiment. Ah the good old days...
