CHAPTER

Exploring the Nature of Time and Speed

This chapter investigates the concept of time measurement, particularly focusing on the second and its significance in both human perception and the universe. The hosts discuss phenomena such as time dilation, lengths of time from attoseconds to Planck time, and the challenges that arise in understanding events at these scales. Through a blend of scientific inquiry and playful dialogue, they highlight how our understanding of time is intertwined with the speed of particles and the limitations of our current theories.
