Although our Solar System is billions of years old, we've only recently become better acquainted with one of its more dynamic and captivating inhabitants known as (2060) Chiron.
Chiron belongs to the class of objects that astronomers call "Centaurs." Centaurs are space objects that orbit the Sun between Jupiter and Neptune. They are akin to the mythological creature they borrow their name

Scientists are making significant strides in creating nuclear clocks, a new frontier in ultra-precise timekeeping. Unlike optical atomic clocks that depend on electronic transitions, nuclear clocks harness the energy transitions within atomic nuclei. These transitions are less influenced by external forces, offering potentially unparalleled timekeeping accuracy.
