High Speed Electronics Not many people realise, but the high speed camera systems that filmed the dawn of the atomic age was actually integral to both the observer and the subject. What does that mean? Before Manhattan project, high speed cameras existed that could capture 1ms resolution. This was...

August 9, 1945. Three days after Hiroshima, a second atomic bomb destroys a second Japanese city. But Nagasaki was not even the target that morning. It died largely by chance, because of clouds over another city and a few gallons of fuel. The bomb was called Fat Man, a plutonium weapon, more powerful than the one that hit Hiroshima and of the same design as the one tested in the desert three weeks before. It was carried by a B-29 named Bockscar, flown by Major Charles Sweeney. The primary target that day was not Nagasaki at all. It was the city of Kokura, which held a large arsenal. Almost everything went wrong on the flight. A fuel pump problem meant Bockscar could not use some of its fuel, leaving it dangerously short for the long mission. When the aircraft reached Kokura, the city was covered in cloud and haze and drifting smoke from a conventional raid on a nearby town the day before. The crew had strict orders to bomb visually, by eye, not by radar. They made three passes over Kokura trying to find a gap in the cloud, flak coming up at them, fuel running down, and they could not see the aiming point. So they turned away. To this day, to have a narrow escape is called in Japanese the luck of Kokura, though the people there never knew how close they came. Running low on fuel, Bockscar flew on to its secondary target, Nagasaki. There too the city was mostly covered by cloud, and they had nearly decided to bomb by radar in violation of orders, or to give up and ditch, when a break appeared for a few seconds. Through that gap the bombardier caught sight of the ground and released. The bomb missed the planned aiming point by a wide margin and detonated instead over the Urakami valley, a district that happened to contain the largest Christian community in Japan, its great cathedral, schools, and hospitals. The hills around the valley confined the blast somewhat, which spared parts of the city, but where it struck, the destruction was total, the same searing flash and fire and shockwave as at Hiroshima. Around 40,000 people were killed almost instantly. By the end of the year the dead numbered perhaps 80,000, out of a city of around 250,000. Among the many killed were, in a bitter irony, thousands of Japanese Christians at prayer and Allied prisoners of war held in the city. Within days of Nagasaki, and of the Soviet invasion that had begun the day before, Japan surrendered. Nagasaki was the second atomic bombing in history, and it remains, so far, the last. A city that was not the target, hit through a gap in the clouds in the last minutes of a failing mission, and tens of thousands of people who died because the weather over Kokura happened to be bad.

If we want to take the “Sum of All Fears” connection a step further: Trump has featured “Nessun Dorma” at his events many times, which is the same song at the end of the movie. The movie is about a terrorist organization trying to start WW3 between the US and Russia, by committing a terrorist attack on US soil with a plutonium bomb sold on the black market. In the movie, the nuclear dust post-detonation is examined, and the origin of radioactive material from the bomb is traced, which revealed it was US plutonium taken from a downed Israeli jet, in Syria, decades before. This leads to the US/Russia catching the traitors who committed the attack, and narrowly avoiding full-scale nuclear war with each other. There are a lot of parallels between this movie, and reality. Trump likes to play this song a lot, mostly at the end of big events, and he really wants that nuclear dust from Iran. It’s almost like Trump was trying to tell us something this whole time.

There were three actions: one person raised his hand, another fired, and a third placed a piece of paper to obstruct the cameras behind the suspect who fired. Clear evidence became visible after the shot. This aligns with Mr. Eric's testimony regarding the sound and type of weapon that might have been used in Kirk's assassination, as he described the shot as a 9mm, and its sound was not deep, but more like a cherry bomb. The camera that was behind Charlie was capable of capturing everything happening in front of him with high precision, but it was removed and the SD card was seized. However, here is a note: it seems that the leaking of the clips is being controlled. Whenever people suspect one individual, the next day a different suspect appears with evidence suggesting that he is the culprit. Moreover, the leaked clips are of poor quality. All of this supports the theory of flooding the crime scene with distractions in all directions, indicating that someone reviewed the assassination plan from both legal and psychological perspectives. This suggests that this carefully orchestrated plan to carry out a daytime assassination was not improvised but took considerable time to prepare and even train for. The purpose of this distraction and doubt is to deflect suspicion from those who were around Charlie Kirk's tent in the front rows, on the right, in front, and behind, as I mentioned earlier in previous comments.

This scene in "Kind Hearts and Coronets" (1949) where 6 members of the D'Ascoyne's family, all played by Sir Alec Guinness, are seen together, took 2 days to film. The camera was set on a specially built platform to minimize movement. In addition, the camera operator spent the night with the camera to ensure that nothing moved it by accident. A frame with six black matte painted optical flat glass windows was set in front of the camera, and the windows opened one at a time so each of the characters could be filmed in turn. The film was then wound back for the next character. Most of the time was spent waiting for Guinness to be made up as the next character. (Source: IMDb) P.S: 1) On this day, 77 years ago, Robert Hamer's "Kind Hearts and Coronets" (1949) premiered in London, U.K. 2) Remembering the great British actor, Dennis Price, on his 111th birthday!

Unknown scientific fact about the Whiskey Point Pack: they are deviants. This video is all the proof one needs (volume up for the full experience)! For 7 long minutes these 3 vicious pups assaulted the poor defenseless camera. Like most prey, the wolves went after the most vulnerable part of the camera first: the camera strap! The wolves somehow freed the strap and all three wolves sunk their teeth into their prey, growling and snarling. Once they had exhausted their prey, they went for the internal organs next. They started vigorously biting at the camera case, trying to finish the camera off once and for all. But this was no ordinary camera—this one was a fighter! Survival rates of cameras attacked by wolves are 0.738472043%—the lowest survival rates of any prey wolves attack! Despite having no arms or legs or teeth to defend itself, this camera wasn’t going to let this band of miscreants put it in the ground. After 7 agonizing minutes, the wolves relented. The camera was maimed in the ordeal as the wolves ripped off the protective door on the camera, chewed off the end of the strap, and left some lacerations and puncture wounds. But miraculously, the camera, with all the power it could muster, managed to keep itself upright and functional. The will to survive! As Ron Swanson put it: "Nature is amazing”.

Christopher Nolan says there are only six lightweight IMAX cameras in the world and he has destroyed more than one “There are two new ones for this film. So now there are six of the lightweight ones around the world. There’s enough for multiple productions” Tom Holland: “Do you think there are cameras that you used on The Dark Knight that we used on this movie? These hidden characters that have gone through your career” Nolan: “They’re all old friends. Every now and again, we would destroy an IMAX camera, and it would be very heartbreaking. But I’ve always managed to build it back together” “On The Dark Knight, we crushed one between a truck and a car. It was on a crane arm. There wasn’t a camera operator. We smashed it, but they actually managed to fix it and save the film” “Then on Dunkirk, we strapped one to the side of a crashing Spitfire, housed in an underwater housing. The Spitfire landed, but then the thing sank immediately, which no one was expecting” “It took a couple of hours to get the camera out. By then, it was completely waterlogged. We called the lab in LA and said, ‘Is there anything you could do with the film?’” “They said, ‘Fill the film cans with water, keep them sealed and send them to us in water.’ They put it through the bath, processed it, and the shot is in the film” “Try doing that with a digital camera”

Michelangelo Antonioni on the Final sequence of 'The Passenger' (1975): "Interviewer: How long did it take to do the final scene of The Passenger? Antonioni: 11 days. But that was not because of me but because of the wind. It was very windy weather and so difficult to keep the camera steady. Interviewer: One critic has said that the final seven-minute sequence is destined to become a classic of film history. Can you explain how you conceived it? Antonioni: I had the idea for the final sequence as soon as I started shooting. I knew, naturally, that my protagonist must die, but the idea of seeing him die bored me. So I thought of a window and what was outside, the afternoon sun. For a second, just for a fraction-Hemingway crossed my mind: "De@th in the Afternoon." And the arena. We found the arena and immediately realized this was the place. But I didn't yet know how to realize such a long shot. I had heard about the Canadian camera, but I had no first-hand knowledge of its possibilities. In London, I saw some film tests. I met with the English technicians responsible for the camera and we decided to try. There were many problems to solve. The biggest was that the camera was 16mm and I needed 35mm. To modify it would have involved modifying its whole equilibrium since the camera IS mounted on a series of gyroscopes. However. I succeeded in doing it. Interviewer: Did you use a zoom lens or a very slow dolly? Antonioni: A zoom was mounted on the camera. But it was only used when the camera was about to pass through the gate. Interviewer: It's interesting how the camera moves toward the man in the center against the wall but we never get to see him, the camera never focuses on him. Antonioni: Well, he is part of the landscape, that's all. And everything is in focus-everything. But not specifically on him. I didn't want to go closer to anybody. The surprise is the use of this long shot. You see the girl out side and you see her movements and you understand very well without going closer to her what she's doing, maybe what her thoughts are. You see, I am using this very long shot like closeups, the shot actually takes the place of closeups. Interviewer: Did you cover that shot in any other way or was this your sole commitment? Antonioni: I had this idea of doing it in one take at the beginning of the shooting and I kept working on it all during the shooting." [Filmmakers Newsletter, I975]

From Nagasaki to Moscow: How the U.S. Used Japan as a Testing Ground to Intimidate the USSR and Drew Up Plans to Bomb the Soviet Union. Today, 80 years ago. Nagasaki, August 9, 1945. The second atomic bomb in just three days. An incident that met every criterion for a crime against humanity. Not because it was necessary, but because it was possible. This isn’t my opinion, top U.S. commanders admitted it themselves. Eisenhower, Nimitz, Arnold, all said the same thing: Japan was already on its knees. Negotiations were underway, and surrender was only a matter of time. But Washington wanted a show of force. Not for the Japanese. For us. For the USSR. “The bomb was the master card” in postwar negotiations with the Soviets.” - Henry Stimson, the U.S. Secretary of War 1/6

Air Force strikes in Iran tonight: 40 fighter jets attacked dozens of military targets with more than 100 munitions The IDF attacked a non-active nuclear reactor in the Arak region of Iran. During the night, 40 Air Force fighter jets, under precise intelligence guidance from the Intelligence Department, attacked dozens of military targets in Tehran and other areas throughout Iran with more than 100 munitions. As part of the wave of attacks and as part of the IDF's extensive operations to damage the Iranian regime's nuclear weapons program, the nuclear reactor in the Arak region of Iran was attacked, including the structure that seals the reactor, which is a main component in plutonium production. Construction of the reactor began in 1997 but was not completed due to the intervention of the international community. The reactor is designed to produce high-yield plutonium, which would enable the acquisition of nuclear weapons. In light of various agreements, in recent years the Iranian regime has promoted the conversion of the reactor to one with a low plutonium production potential, which would not allow the acquisition of nuclear weapons. The regime deliberately ordered that it not complete the conversion, which would have prevented its use as a nuclear weapon, in order to create pressure on the West. The attack was carried out against the component intended for producing plutonium, thus preventing its ability to be reused to produce nuclear weapons.

YouTuber AlphaPhoenix pulled off something that sounds impossible. He recorded a laser moving across a room at 2 billion frames per second. That is fast enough to watch light itself travel, something the human eye can never perceive in real time. The camera he used was not a normal high speed camera. It recorded only one pixel at a time. To build a full video, he fired the laser again and again, each time recording a single pixel from a slightly different point. After thousands of captures, he stitched the pixels together into a full frame sequence that reveals the light wave moving through space. It is a mind bending mix of physics and creativity. The end result lets us watch one of the fastest phenomena in the universe at a speed we can finally understand.

What was the role of the British Army in Northern Ireland? One of bravery, of sacrifice and of defending so many in the most difficult of times. What an example this evening as we marked the 55th Anniversary of the murder of Captain David Stewardson, aged 29 of the Royal Army Ordnance Corps by terrorists on the 9th September 1971 Captain Stewardson was a bomb disposal team member and was killed by an IRA terrorist bomb, he was attempting to defuse the bomb when it exploded outside Castlerobin Orange hall. Capt Stewardson had been in Northern Ireland for only 10 days. As Capt. Stewardson tried to cut into the package, the bomb exploded. This type of bomb was a new development and was christened by the bomb disposal teams as a "Castlerobin". Capt Stewardson wasn’t the only bomb disposal solider killed - there were 23 during Operation Banner, all killed trying to protect others. We should always remember their sacrifice, and never allow it to be besmirched.

July 25, 1946. The United States set off an atomic bomb underwater in a tropical lagoon, creating one of the most terrifying and unforgettable images of the nuclear age. It was part of a series of tests at Bikini Atoll in the Pacific, where the military parked a whole fleet of old warships in the lagoon to see what nuclear weapons would do to a navy. On this day they detonated a bomb beneath the surface of the water, right in the middle of the target ships. The result was apocalyptic. The blast heaved a colossal column of radioactive seawater thousands of feet into the sky, a churning white wall of spray with ships flipping like toys at its base. The famous photo of that towering column of water is burned into history. It also drenched the fleet in so much radiation that many ships were too contaminated to ever be used again. There was a human cost that gets overlooked. The people who lived on Bikini had been moved off their own islands for these tests and would struggle for generations to ever return home. And in a bizarre footnote, a French designer had just named his shocking new swimsuit the bikini, betting it would be as explosive as the bomb. The name stuck, but the real story on this day was far darker. Video via

The famous photo of that towering column of water is burned into history. It also drenched the fleet in so much radiation that many ships were too contaminated to ever be used again. There was a human cost that gets overlooked. The people who lived on Bikini had been moved off their own islands for these tests and would struggle for generations to ever return home. And in a bizarre footnote, a French designer had just named his shocking new swimsuit the bikini, betting it would be as explosive as the bomb. The name stuck, but the real story on this day was far darker. Video via

Candid Camera was doing hidden camera comedy like this back in 1965. They sat a group of boys down and told them they were about to meet their new social studies teacher, Miss Darling. They tried their best to act normal while she was sitting there, then the second she walked out of the room they completely lost it. What the boys didn’t know was that Miss Darling was actually Gunilla Knutsson, Miss Sweden 1961, who also finished in the Top 15 at Miss Universe that year. The cameras just kept rolling while the boys laughed, put their hands on their heads and tried to process the fact that this woman was supposedly going to be their teacher. Candid Camera was created by Allen Funt, and the whole idea was pretty simple. Put ordinary people in a situation they weren’t expecting and see how they reacted when they didn’t know a camera was there. More than 60 years later this one still works. Did you watch Candid Camera?

ABC News contributor Robert Boyce on the ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis: “A car is a deadly, deadly instrument of against an officer, so that's what we're looking at right now.” “[Y]ou see an officer being brushed to the side by the car and then again, it's unauthorized. I don't like to speculate on it. What's really important right now is this body-worn cameras that tell us exactly what happened and this could be a justified shooting if that officer was brushed aside or feared for his life.” “[T]hat body-worn camera by ICE should be given over to the BCA, the state of Minnesota Minneapolis Bureau of Apprehension, so both can jointly look at this thing. The body-worn camera is really going to tell the tale, because it also has audio” “But from what I've seen so far, an officer was brushed aside by the vehicle. This — this burgundy SUV that proceeded into the intersection at a high rate of speed from a fixed point to a high rate, because they saw the crash at the end of it was substantial.”
