-approves of the gaga hate in this thread-

Nice series of pictures.

Shame its not a speeding bullet, its an air rifle pellet. The photographer even says its speed was 260 m/s. sort of gives you a clue.

Second clue was in the Mails own article, in the blue box detailing "How the process works".

Para E states Precise calculations are used to measure exactly when the drop and pellet arrive at the same point. The whole process takes 28 milliseconds.

You're thinking of the shell of a bullet I think

No, but you do have to have some creative intelligence to appreciate art.
