Hello fellow Dink's community members, I would like to take a moment today to recognize one of the greatest scientists of all time, Max Planck (1858-1947). A winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918, Mr. Planck is widely regarded as the father of quantum theory and was integral in our understanding of subatomic processes. To do this, some units of measure were created, which include the Planck length (1.6 x 10-35 meters) and Planck time (5.4 x 10-44 seconds) These numbers can be used in theoretical calculations but are far beyond what even modern experimental processes can quantify. So, let's all take a moment to remember this great man. By quantifying a Planck length, we can continue to push the boundaries of science and even potentially calculate even smaller quantities, such as the shortness of @Mother Nuru.
