Dear emeritus Prof. Dr. Gérard Mourou:
In my own plebeian and idiosyncratic way, I am approaching the Yoctosecond a bit differently; notwithstanding, I thank you profoundly for your work that helped to open ultrafast measurements. You gave us a sense of the art of the impossible!
Are there these 26 faces of time? https://81018.com/the-firsts/ (chart below)
Thank you again and again.
Most sincerely,
Bruce
