"OK...who the invented the modern strobe light?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MIT's Doctor Harold Edgerton -- who first "froze" the image of a splash of milk (and became known as, "Doc Flash").
"Doc" went on to invent side-scan and sub-bottom-profiling SONAR.
And, "Doc" was the first "E" in EG&G -- Edgerton, Germeshausen & Grier -- the company that invented and did many classified things. Among which was much of the instrumentation of all of our nuclear tests.
It was my personal pleasure to meet "Doc" at EG&G (next door to the original "Radio Shack" in Boston...
Brilliant gentleman!
