Features

Atomic clock components sit in a laboratory setting, a blue light laser shines through a metal chamber, partially obscured by a pair of lenses

Physics

Most accurate molecular clock yet uses extremely cold strontium

A clock that ticks using vibrations of strontium molecules could be used to test Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity or to search for forces that have yet to be described
