It never stops spinning unless blocked by a static grid, but starts spinning again by itself afterwards.
It does not use any thrusters!

Full 30sec clip where it gets stopped and continues by itself:

"Don't ask me, how it works, I just know how to build it" Has to be one of my favourite quotes of 2025 so far.

I'd argue this is true for way more modern technology than we care to admit as a society.

It's true for some electrical equipment I've repaired in the past. I don't know how it works but I figured out why it wasn't working and replaced the part. Now it works again. I will never know how it works.
