What is earths precession?
The Earth is a spinning top (gyro) with a different moment of inertia about the spin axis than the other two axis. Therefore, it acts like a spinning top with both precession and nutation. Precession of the polar axis (relative to a 'fixed' distant star) forms a cone. The precession period (~26,000years) is the time it takes for the cone to be traced. Nutation occurs normal to the precession cone and has a much faster period (~18.6yrs).
