1/1,000,000,000 of a Second











What are these three old pictures about? It is actually an atomic explosion!!! Im totally amazed at the picture which were captured....and try to imagine...i takes you, 1/1,000,000,000 of a second which is equivalent to 1 of a BILLIONTH second to capture the image! And whoa...the explosion is so....roundish... The pictures were taken by a guy named, Harold Edgerton. If im not mistaken, from what i've googled, his name is Professor Harold Eugene "Doc" Edgerton. Guess what? He died exactly a week before i was born!
