"Single-shot real-time femtosecond imaging of temporal focusing"

Oh! Oh! Here it comes Elizabeth, this is the big one! ARGGGHHH! 

I love when you talk dirty during science. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41377-018-0044-7

This is the money shot of the article:

We have developed single-shot 10-trillion-frame-per-second compressed ultrafast photography (T-CUP)...in a single camera exposure. 

Pret-ty coolsome, no? Okay, what do you do with femtosecond (one quadrillionth) photography? You frigging,

...record the first-ever movie of non-repeatable temporal focusing of a single ultrashort laser pulse in a dynamic scattering medium. "light" is what all that mumbo-jumbo means; you can take a movie of light in one quadrillionth shots. You can see that light is a fluid. Light appears to us as one...thing (technical term) but light is actually made up of discrete drips and drops, light-wise the drips and drops are called laser pulses and you can frigging see these laser pulses.

The drastic changes in the width and intensity of an ultrashort laser pulse during temporal focusing impose a requirement for femtosecond-level exposure to capture the instantaneous light patterns generated in this exquisite phenomenon.

See! It's a frigging exquisite phenomenon you frigging cockroaches. It,

...is of great significance in exploring the physics of the space–time duality and finding diverse applications. 

You WANT diverse applications, okay? Trust me. Trust Harvard. Harvard found TONS--quadrillions!-- of diverse applications, okay? You don't even frigging know what the frigging space-time duality is, do you, you frigging Trump supporting single ultrashort brain wave you make me sick.
