For an idea of scale, 247 zepto seconds is as close to the Planck Time (on a log scale) as it is to about two weeks (13.1 days)[1] [1]: https://www.wolframalph

Alternative wording: the ratios of these pairs (13 days / 247zs) and (247zs / t_P) are approximately the same. t_P being the Planck time here.

  Another alternate wording: 247 zs is the geometric mean of t_P and 13.1 days.

    Planck time, 247 zeptoseconds, and 13.1days are equally far apart on log scale. Planck time is really small.

      Thanks, I can understand this one :P

So we're still pretty far ! As I imagine an order of magnitude smaller requires an order of magnitude more money and complex equipments.
