Nanosecond

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Nanosecond

A nanosecond was a unit of time measurement.

Among the equipment Gallifreyan shock troops possessed, was a pendant which allowed them to stay precisely ten nanoseconds in time ahead of their opponents, which they used to avoid getting "mowed down" on ground assaults.
