Summary

Interesting Things with JC #1761: "At the Space-Time Limit" – In 2026, researchers measured an electron moving through a barrier in less than a femtosecond while still seeing where it was at the scale of a single atom. The experiment pushes electron observation into times measured in attoseconds without losing the atomic-scale view.
