Planck’s Angels
by Kane S. Latranz
For the ancient Greeks, ‘atom’ meant undivided. In the
age of atom-smashers, that distinction has been passed
down to the ‘Planck Length.’
No one has ever walked the Planck Length, or even seen
one. Couldn’t it be halved; quartered; billionthed;
trillionthed?
How many dancing particles
form the head
of a
pi
n
?
