OK what are your thoughts on this?
Sorry about the link I couldn't get it to post the video directly.

These types of science talks, lectures and debates are one of my favorite things about the internet.

Thanks for sharing.
 
I'm too paranoid of Big Bro to leave comments up like that. sorry.

but yeah, I think it has military applications
No worries

The ability to look into deep space and to see the universe almost as if we were there is so mind boggling.
 
In the video the light traveling through the bottle is not 'femto' (i.e 10[SUP]−15[/SUP]) it would have to capture at a 'quadrillion' frames a second. .. In the video its travelling at 10 billionths (10x10[SUP]−9[/SUP]) which is actually 10 nano-seconds. ... That example should be called 'nano-photography' because its 10,000 times too slow. .. still very impressive.

Its crazy to actually think that there is a fundamental limit to how slow time can go 'Planck time' or 'Plank-second' (10[SUP]−44[/SUP]) ...
 
It's amazing to see the different technologies being developed, just think what another 50 years will bring. I always liked this one...[video=youtube;YVvn8dpSAt0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVvn8dpSAt0[/video]
that is mind blowing woow :) like that one

I saw this a while back on youtube but it got deleted because of copyright issues so I couldn't find it thanks for the link! It still boggles my mind. Wouldn't the camera have to be ging faster than the speed of light for this to work?
