light at one trillion times a second

[lost in a sea]

i meant to say frames per second, and the photon at the start is only shown at a billion fps i think,,

new camera/computer technology is pretty amazing

if it slows down to one trillion frames per second does that mean it takes me one trillion seconds to understand one frame of matter... damn physics is tough to break down

Very fast indeed....

But is it fast enough to capture a picture of a woman with her mouth shut???

299,792,458 meters/second is the speed of light in a vacuum. 1 trillionth of that (or nano scale - millionth of a millionth) would be .0003 meters or about 1/100th of an inch (the size of a singe cell amoeba).

I think the British scale sees millions and billions reversed. American million = 1,000,000 and British billion = 1,000,000. The British scale actually makes a bit more sense.

100 million is a billion for sterling. I think

thats simply amazing, im rather gobsmacked, i didnt think we had got so far in our high speed photography!

and english numbers go like this
a million is a thousand thousand, a billion is a million million and a trillion is a billion billion, but everyone uses the american convention of a thousand million being a billion and a thousand billion being a trillion

thanks for sharing this, superb find ^^

I was off about the British conversion. British English has now adopted the American figure. I thought "bi" and "tri" was meant in numbers of sets of zeros (1 billion = 1,000,000 and 1 trillion = 1,000,000,000). Hexillion: Hex means six and (6 + 1) * 3 = 21, so one hexillion is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. So that's how I thought to deduce that.

well standard form is now the norm throughout the world pretty much, simply using

3.2 x 10^6 = 3,200,000

which is alot better and easier to work with in physics, especially when you start using really tiny or really massive numbers, instead of having to write

0.000000001 you just write 1 x 10^-9

^^ lol

anyone seen these experiments putting sand and salt on plates that resonate through frequencies?

natures music,, the electromagnetic scale,, everything is waves..

on the same page on youtube you see some dumb fuckin named clips like "knights templar secret music code",, where do you start unraveling retarded stuff like that, just how scared and brainwashed that person must be, or malignant,, this is how the conspiracy conspiracy has been used to taint everything.. if people dont understand it then its the devil somehow and in actual fact its nearer to god..

HA!!

if you could do 186,00 miles per second of frame rate what would happen? May be the key they've been looking for.
