  • Versailles,  - November 16, 2018: During a coffee break, attendees of the 26th CGPM meeting in Versailles, France take photos of two new symbols of measurement, a silicon crystal sphere — related to the Avogadro Constant which measures the mole and a prototype of the next generation of smaller Kibble Balances, which help define what a kilogram weighs, using the Planck Constant. <br />
Representatives from 57 countries voted unanimously to redefine four basic units of measurement -- the kilogram, the mole, the kelvin, and ampere -- during at the General Conference on Weights and Measures in Versailles, France November 16, 2018. <br />

  • Gaithersburg, Maryland - November 09, 2018: The Kibble Balance located in the subbasement of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg is instrumental in redefining the Kilogram, using Planck’s Constant, a value from quantum mechanics.<br />
<br />
The NIST-4 Kibble Balance uses electromagnetism instead of gravity to weigh an object's mass, precise to 900 nanometers. <br />
<br />
Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology have helped improved methods for definitively measuring a kilogram. Representatives from 57 countries will vote at the General Conference on Weights and Measures in Versailles, France to redefine four basic units of measurement November 16, 2018. <br />
