摘要：
If measuring devices are extensions of our senses, then increasing measurement accuracy can improve our knowledge of the universe. This month's column is about some of the most accurate measurements knowntime from atomic clocksand how such measurements might be used to measure gravitational features of our Earth in finer detail.
