Yottasecond
Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-007382
A unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one septillion seconds, or 10^24 s. This duration is so vast that it is primarily used in theoretical physics and cosmology to describe timescales far longer than the current age of the universe. For context, one yottasecond is approximately 2.4 x 10^16 times the estimated age of the universe, which is about 4.3 x 10^17 seconds.
