Physicists just found a tiny flaw in time itself: uncertainty in how precisely time can be measured (but no practical consequences for everyday timekeeping)
In their new work, the researchers established a quantitative relationship between Continuous Spontaneous Localization and fluctuations in spacetime caused by gravity.
Their findings suggest these ideas could have surprising consequences for how time itself behaves, including tiny limits on how precisely it can be measured. However, this effect is far too small to impact any current timekeeping technology.
