1 what? Cucumber per nanosecond?

[-] kureta@lemmy.ml 10 points 8 months ago

1 speed of light of course.

Light-second per second

[-] Tranus@programming.dev 4 points 8 months ago

Actually, yes. Light travels about 30cm in a nanosecond, around the size of a cucumber.

Which is why I updated my comment from "banana per nanosecond", which itself was originally updated from "apple per picosecond" that I just put there randomly, without any thought.

Is there another way to measure the speed of light?
