What is a sidereal minute?

A sidereal minute is 1/60 of a sidereal hour, based on Earth's rotation relative to fixed stars, roughly equal to 59.836 seconds of mean solar time.

What is the purpose of converting sidereal minutes to attoseconds?

This conversion bridges astronomical time with ultrafast scales used in quantum and electronic processes, aiding research across physics and astronomy.

Is this conversion used for everyday timekeeping?

No, due to the vast difference in scale and complexity, this conversion is not practical for routine timekeeping and is mainly theoretical or scientific.
