<p>Just sharing this from <a href="https://physicsworld.com" rel="nofollow">Physics world magazine</a> as It seems relevant to anyone interested in large and small numerical values.</p>
<ul><li><a href="https://physicsworld.com/a/new-si-prefixes-go-large-and-small-using-physics-to-avoid-sauce-splatter/" rel="nofollow">Physics World article(s)</a></li></ul>

<p>So basically we are looking at :</p>
<ul><li>$10^{27}$ – Nonna</li>
<li>$10^{30}$ – quecca
Along with their counterparts</li>
<li>$10^{-27}$ – ronto</li>
<li>$10^{-30}$ – quecto</li></ul>
