The platinum and iridium alloy cylinder (the Czech Metrology Institute in Brno, Czech Republic, pictured on November 16, 2018) will no longer be a kilogram standard. Representatives of individual countries at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) conference, as expected, have decided to redefine the kilogram and other basic units. The base unit of mass is newly derived from the fixed value of the Planck constant. (CTK Photo/Igor Zehl)
