 Did you know about the Attosecond laser project?

It won the Nobel prize for physics in 2023.

N.B. There are more attoseconds in a second, than there have been seconds in the life of the Universe (13.8Bn years).

Using the 4 attosecond laser, it is now possible to "photograph" the electron spinning around the nucleus.
