Planck's Constant is said to be one of the smallest constants used in Physics. Some even say it is one of the imponderables – something that we know exists and is true but cannot be explained yet. I remember reading somewhere that Max Planck somehow discovered this constant but was unable to explain how he did so. While experts may dismiss it as a concept of quantum mechanics, a branch of science that is still under intense research, a common man might see it as nothing short of a mystery.
