An article with images from an atomic blast in the desert. Edgerton was a major inventor who developed the strobe and ultra-fast photography for the study of motion. Bullet through balloon? That was him.

I think they moved it b/c of the trafffic. This is the 3rd forum I've seen it on. You should do a google search for it though, it's pretty incredible.
