Well, they were taken on July 16, 1945......
In New Mexico......
With a 10 foot lens that was seven miles from this event, at a shutter speed of 1/100,000,000th of a second......
The man who took these photos was world-renowned as the man who could stop time (due to his high-speed photography and film-making, he would become a professor at MIT with an entire educational center now named after him).
These are photos of the first nuclear bomb detonation.
