Massive python caught: What they are saying "At first we measured with a 15-foot tape measure that we had lying around, and it wasn’t long enough," Hoffman said.

It took not one, but two tape measures to get the official length of this female Burmese python found near Everglades City, Florida.

One example is the atomic clock, which uses the quantum properties of atoms to measure time much more accurately than would be possible with conventional clocks.

The consumer-price index tells us nothing about changes in affordability. We need another measure.

We want to understand how these protein “cogs” work together, so we take them apart and solve their structures to learn how changes in their shape and atomic make-up allow them to measure time ...

Measuring time to the 19th decimal place, as nuclear clocks could do, would allow scientists to study very fast processes ...

With its ability to track time across millennia, this Lego clock not only serves as a tool for measuring time but also as a stunning testament to mechanical innovation and sustainability.

Modern timekeeping relies on the accuracy of atomic clocks, which revolutionized timekeeping by using the quantum behavior of atoms to measure time.
