Link 12 Dec 93 notes Speed of Light Lingers in Face of New Camera»

soupsoup:

More than 70 years ago, the M.I.T. electrical engineer Harold (Doc) Edgerton began using strobe lights to create remarkable photographs: a bullet stopped in flight as it pierced an apple, the coronet created by the splash of a drop of milk.

Now scientists at M.I.T.’s Media Lab are using an ultrafast imaging system to capture light itself as it passes through liquids and objects, in effect snapping a picture in less than two-trillionths of a second.

    Capturing video at a trillion frames per second - MIT Media Lab I love technologies that extend perception. In this case...

    I’m still wrapping my head around “picoseconds”. Not micro- or nanoseconds, but picoseconds. Forget
