I love science.

This blew my mind, you can actually see light's wave particle duality. I actually squealed watching this (figuratively).

Wow, the way this slows down light is impressive.

That can also be used to spot enemies inside buildings and walls during war. :D Death! :D

I declare this the new standard console games have to aim for, any lower framerate will be unacceptable and render a game unplayable!



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Very impressive, but the guy says it need 5000 shots put together to track light movement.
It's bound to a technique rather than only pure technology advancement.
Basically they need 5000 light pulses to take 5000 frames and create the effect of a countinuos single one progressing.


Tracking light speed itself will still need more advancements, if ever possible.

Or did I understood something wrong?

I believe it takes 5000 slices of the images as each slice is measured by a single laser which pulses at regular but extremely fast intervals.

science is stupid and doesn't know anything. the world is flat. the sun revolves around the world. evolution is a lie and so is climate change. now if you'll excuse me i'm going to watch netflix on the computer god created.
