Could a camera take a photo' of a past event or a future event ?
Can past events be photographed after they have occurred ?
Or future events likewise ?
As far back as 1958 an Associated Press report released via the Miami Herald described the following.
" A special infra-red camera photographed an empty parking lot from a reconnaissance plane. The result was a photograph of cars which had been parked on the lot several hours previously, and which were not there at the time the pictures were taken."
Elgin Air Force Base in Florida were asked how this was done., and the test officials explained that a film in the camera was sensitive to heat rays, emitted by solid objects, instead of light rays as in the case of an ordinary camera.
The sensitive equipment can distinguish in thousands of a degree, heat contrasts between objects and their background.
The U.S. air force did not disclose how far backward into time a picture could be taken, and did not release their ' time pictures ' to the public, as they did not want foreign powers to copy them.
If the U.S. could do that with a camera over 50 years ago, I can't imagine what they can be doing now.
We would never be told
