It is shown that the quantum uncertainty of the angular momentum and angular position of a rotator causes an uncertainty in its gravitational field, which grows to infinite values at very large distances from the rotator. It is thereby inferred that a finite distribution of matter can determine which frames are inertial only within a finite distance. Cosmological consequences of this fact are discussed. (auth)
