A snapshot of relativistic motion: visualizing the Terrell-Penrose effect
The Terrell-Penrose effect states that the relativistic Lorentz contraction of fast-moving objects cannot be seen in a photograph, but it has never been verified due to the requirement of relativistic speeds of the moving object. Using femtosecond laser pulses and ultrafast photography, and virtually reducing the speed of light, the authors demonstrate the accuracy of this statement.
