Your stupidity is truly astounding.

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picosecond>

And 0 microseconds, due to significant digits, is massively larger than
a picosecond.

A picosecond is 1/3 of a light mm. (that i to say, light takes 3
picoseconds to travel 1mm).

And again you expose your complete ignorance.
