Researchers have used the world's most powerful laser to capture an image of objects behind a 1.8-meter-thick concrete wall. The achievement was achieved at the ELI-NP research center in Romania. The images recorded are still not very clear and detailed; but the researchers consider the experiment an important advance in imaging technology. The technology could be used in areas such as security and mining.
