The space.com article states "That time? Two hundred and forty-seven zeptoseconds, with some wiggle room depending on the distance between the hydrogen atoms within the molecule at the precise moment the photon winged by. The measurement is essentially capturing the speed of light within the molecule. "We observed for the first time that the electron shell in a molecule does not react to light everywhere at the same time," Dörner said in the statement. "The time delay occurs because information within the molecule only spreads at the speed of light."
zeptoseconds is fast
247 of these is 2.47E-19 second. The experiment uses Special Relativity or Einstein Synchrony Convention (ESC). There is the Anisotropic Synchrony Convention (ASC) used by some today too
