The new camera developed at MIT can capture a trillion frames per second. When compared to conventional cameras that capture in the order of 24 to 60 frames per second, it is a huge leap in numbers!

This new discovery gives scientists the opportunity to photograph the motion of the fastest objects in space. That is light. In the following video, you will see an experiment in which light passes through a bottle of water at a speed of 965,6 Gm / h. The whole event will actually take place in the order of nanoseconds, but thanks to the camera we are able to slow down the whole event to 12 seconds.

Sueneé: With this technology, we are approaching the possibilities of observing objects that are moving at the speed of light. For example, extraterrestrial ships or special creatures that resemble long darts with coronet wings. It should be remembered that our observing abilities disappear just at the speed of light. Everything that we do not know at this rate is conscious yet.
