Doc Edgerton : Harold E. Edgerton 

He was a pioneer in strobe photography[?], using the technique to capture images of balloons during their bursting, or a bullet during its impact with an apple, for example. He was awarded a bronze medal by the Royal Photographic Society in 1934.

He was a cofounder of the company EG&G, with Kenneth Germeshausen[?] and Herbert Grier[?].

His work was instrumental in the development of side-scan sonar technology, used to scan the sea floor for wrecks. Edgerton worked with the undersea explorer Jacques Cousteau. Edgerton participated in the discovery of the American Civil War battleship USS Monitor.

He was especially loved by MIT students for his willingness to teach and his kindness.
