Waw! This is one of the hottest discoveries ever. For the first time ever scientits have been able to create a movie of an electron! Electrons are so small and so fast that it was thought to be impossible.

In the following video, you can see the energy distribution of an electron during 4 light oscillations. Capturing this on a movie has been made possible because now we are able to take pictures using attoseconds precision. For information an attosecond is defined by researcher Johan Mauritsson as: “An attosecond is related to a second as a second is related to the age of the universe.” WAW! Incredible!
