What is a femtosecond?

A femtosecond is one quadrillionth of a second (10^-15 seconds) used to measure extremely short time intervals in ultrafast scientific experiments.

What does octennial mean?

An octennial is a time period of eight years, often used in administrative, calendrical, or planning contexts.

Why convert femtoseconds to octennials?

Converting femtoseconds to octennials helps relate ultrafast scientific time scales to long-term durations relevant in planning and event scheduling.
