"A picosecond is to a second as one second is to approximately 31,689 years." That's so wild
-
*records for less than 0.1 seconds* “We’re out of memory”
-
11:01 If it was a 1 second (realtime) recording, watching it at this speed would take around 4000 years.

What I love about laboratory buildings is that you'll have this astounding, mind blowing technology that's just behind a boring grey door labelled "CUP".
-
This is a reasonable FPS for gaming.
-
The world's fastest camera is connected to a WINDOWS 7 COMPUTER .
-
This is mind blowing. When I graduated with my physics degree I never imagined I would live to see the day humanity could accomplish this! I would recommend doing a double slit experiment with this camera, it should be awesome!
-
I really want to see the famed double-slit experiment filmed through this camera! To actually witness the dual particle-wave behavior at this speed.
-
For the "worlds fastest camera" it looks pretty stationary
-
World's fastest camera: 10 trillion frames per second Internet Explorer when it's loading: 10 trillion seconds per frame

that chaotic light trap was crazy - thought it was an animation for a sec.
-
To think we’d have to travel this fast for 4 years straight just to reach the nearest star. That’s how big space is and it’s mind blowing.
-
I think Einstein would cry tears of joy if he saw this

Me in 2050 complaining that my phone only records 90,000,000,000,000 fps

It's almost hard to comprehend what a huge step this was in terms of technological development. The speed of light is the speed limit of the universe itself, there is now nothing in the universe that we know of that's too fast for us to see. That's genuinely mind blowing.

Idk if I’m just a science nerd or what, but seeing with my own eyes the speed of light felt incredibly profound. Like seeing something I wasn’t meant to see. You know that feeling in your stomach when an elevator takes off kinda fast? Don’t laugh at me, but I actually felt that for a second!

For reference: if you film one second with this camera, playback in 30FPS will give you more than 10,000 years of footage

When you did the bullet comparison, really put the speed into perspective. Cheers guys 👍👍

I came here to see light moving in slow motion. But found myself slowing down this video to see how the shoe cover machine worked too. Bonus.
