"The exposures are at 1/100,000,000ths of a second"

It is a moving slit of the curtains in the camera. But the slit takes about 1/250th sec to traverse the entire frame. The fireball would be out by the time the first exposure was complete! :-( Similar problem with the idea of the slit in a rotating disk, although with a big enough disk the slit could be larger than the frame size. It isn't just the exposure time that has to occur in 1/millionth of a sec, it is the exposure of the entire frame. Somebody else beat ya to it. It happens. As do propagation delays getting posts from one server to another. From what I can see, the above post was made at least 2hrs before any other addressing problem. -- Kennedy Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed; A lovely little thinker, but a bugger when he's ****ed.
