pico- is a prefix that can be added to any measurement to mean divide by 1,000,000,000,000. femto- is smaller and means / 1,000,000,000,000,000.
atto- is even smaller and means / 1,000,000,000,000,000,000.

a femto second is 1000 times smaller 10-15 an atto second is 1000000 times smaller 10-18 According to current thinking, one Planck time = 5.39 * 10-44 seconds is the smallest unit of time that it will ever be possible to measure.
A picosecond is one trillionth of a second. (10^-12). Or one thousandth of a nanosecond.
1 picosecond = 1*10-12 seconds (a trillionth)
Oh, dude, a microsecond is actually 1,000,000 times longer than a picosecond. So, like, if a picosecond was a tiny ant, a microsecond would be like a giant elephant in comparison. But hey, who's counting, right?
