“These are photographs of the first few milliseconds of nuclear explosions. They lead scientists to several new discoveries as to how nuclear bombs worked. But how do you capture the first millisecond of a nuclear bomb? With several rapatronic cameras, a Kerr cell, and a little physics.”

looks like a half walnut shell growing radicles.

they are really weird looking pics. seen em before but always astounded at the science of them.

Oh, goody…someone else posted in my thread.

I am quite intrigued by the science of the photos….yes, indeedy.

What’s happening in that first millisecond?

I woul;d have thought that almost nothing nuclear, but just the conventional explosives doing their compression thing of the nuclear material.
