Charles Wyckoff

He later did postgraduate work at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with Harold Edgerton, graduating from MIT in 1941.

After World War II he worked with Edgerton to develop techniques to photograph atomic experiments in the Pacific Ocean.

With little resources in the field, he solved chronic fogging problems during tests in the Marshall Islands in 1954, thus saving the entire photographic record of the project.

Wyckoff's famous image of " Ivy Mike ", the first hydrogen bomb detonation, appeared on the cover of Life magazine on April 19, 1954.
