About these units
Septennial (7 years)
A septennial period spans seven years and historically appears in legal, agricultural, and religious cycles. In medieval Europe, land leases, debts, and apprenticeship terms sometimes lasted seven years. Biblical traditions also emphasize cycles of seven, including sabbatical years. Modern risk analysis, demographic studies, and financial planning sometimes examine seven-year spans because they capture medium-term trends while avoiding short-term volatility.
Planck Time (tₚ)
Planck time is the smallest meaningful unit of time in known physics, defined as the time it takes light to travel one Planck length. It equals approximately 5.39 × 10⁻⁴⁴ seconds. Below the Planck time, current theories of spacetime—General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics—break down, and we enter a regime where quantum gravity dominates. Planck time defines the theoretical boundary of the earliest moments of the universe, immediately after the Big Bang, before classical spacetime emerged. It is not a unit we can measure directly; rather, it represents a fundamental limit set by nature's constants, including the speed of light, the gravitational constant, and Planck's constant. The Planck time is the frontier where physics transitions from the known into the speculative—where time itself may become granular, discontinuous, or fundamentally different from the human conception.
