Microcenton

From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide

Similar to millicenton, microcenton is used exclusively in an early episode, "Lost Planet of the Gods, Part II".

Starbuck tells Apollo, that he is "switching off of you for a microcenton to scan ahead." Considering that the early use of the centon in the pilot episode is something closer to a week, the microcenton would be somewhere in the neighborhood of a half second, or one millionth of a week.

The term is superseded by micron.
