10**-20 meter, as Dr. Mike noted, is way, way, way smaller than nano. Nano is only 10**-9. Pico is smaller but still only 10**-12. I still can't imagine how anyone is measuring that with lasers. UV light ranges from 10 to 400 nanometers. Much worse, even, than trying to measure the size of a virus using a meter stick. Anyone got an explanation?

distance gravity research at UDub. Soon to be published.
I'm skeptical that such precision is measurable.
