Hi

So quite new to Mysql - Im running MYSQL 8 and need some advice please

The database will contain a table that collects information about Meteors and amongst other things we collect the date for each event and the time i.e. 18/05/2022 at 09:05:03.10


The table will contain thousands of records and I will be searching for events that occur on the same date and time Plus or Minus x deciseconds

Based on this I looking for the best way to store this info, I have had a read and there seem to be a number of options

Date, Datetime, Time etc and an awful lot of different opinions

Pointers appreciated

Kind Regards
John B
