A group of scientists has measured the shortest unit of time ever with a measurement of the amount of time it takes a light particle to cross a hydrogen molecule. The measurement is called a zeptosecond and is a trillionth of a billionth of a second. That is a decimal point followed by 20 zeros and a one.
Researchers in 2016 were able to measure time in increments down to 850 zeptoseconds. Researchers say that the new level of accuracy was able to measure 247 zeptoseconds. That is a massive inc…
