It’s not the light of fire, but of pure energy breaking a physical boundary. First discovered in 1934 by Russian physicist Pavel Cherenkov, the effect was later explained by Ilya Frank and Igor Tamm, earning all three the 195

Think of it like a sonic boom for light. In certain mediums, the speed of light is slower, and particles can travel faster than light in that medium. For example, the speed of light in water is 225,000,000 metres per second, compared to 299,792,458 metres per second in a vacuum, or about 75% the sp
