  2. Orders of magnitude (time) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(time)

    Clock time and calendar time have duodecimal or sexagesimal orders of magnitude rather than decimal, e.g., a year is 12 months, and a minute is 60 seconds. The smallest meaningful increment of time is the Planck time―the time light takes to traverse the Planck distance, many decimal orders of magnitude smaller than a second. [1]

  3. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    Since 2019, defined as the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second, where the second is defined by a hyperfine transition frequency of caesium. 2.72 m Height of Robert Wadlow, tallest-known human.

  4. Picometre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picometre

    The picometre (international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: pm) or picometer (American spelling) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 1 × 10 −12 m, or one trillionth (⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 000 000 ⁠) of a metre, which is the SI base unit of length.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_units_of...

    The measurement of time is unique in SI in that while the second is the base unit, and measurements of time smaller than a second use prefixed units smaller than a second (e.g. microsecond, nanosecond, etc.), measurements larger than a second instead use traditional divisions, including the sexagesimal-based minute and hour as well as the less ...

    A variety of templates and styles are available to create timelines. The {{Graphical timeline}} template allows representations of extensive timelines. The template offers complex formatting and labeling options to control the output. Typically, each use is made into its own template, and the template is then transcluded into the article.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallest_organisms

    With a size of approximately 200 to 300 nm, M. genitalium is an ultramicrobacterium, smaller than other small bacteria, including rickettsia and chlamydia. However, the vast majority of bacterial strains have not been studied, and the marine ultramicrobacterium Sphingomonas sp. strain RB2256 is reported to have passed through a 220 nm (0.00022 ...
