while i understand what plank length is... Has it ever been measured on multiple axis? As an indicator of the granularity has the plank length (or second) been thus measured?
That's like asking is one meter the same on multiple axes. Being a unit of measure, of course it is the same in every direction.John Tatum said:while i understand what plank length is...

The Plank length is the smallest possible unit of measurement in the universe, theorized by physicist Max Plank. It is important because it is the scale at which quantum effects become significant and our current theories of physics break down.
According to our current understanding of physics, yes, the Plank length is the same in every direction. However, some theories suggest that there may be variations in the Plank length in different regions of space.
The Plank length is incredibly small, measuring at approximately 1.6 x 10^-35 meters. To put it into perspective, it is estimated that there are more Planck lengths in a grain of sand than there are grains of sand on Earth.
No, the Plank length is far too small to be observed with our current technology. It is also difficult to study because our current theories of physics do not accurately describe the behavior of matter at such a small scale.
It is currently not known if the Plank length could change in the future. Some theories suggest that it may be possible for the Plank length to evolve over time, but this is still a topic of debate among scientists.
