 ===== Contributions to Holography =====
-Among the laboratory's most influential scientific achievements was research conducted by **[[emmett_leith|Emmett Leith]]** and **[[juris_upatnieks|Juris Upatnieks]]**. Drawing upon radar signal processing techniques developed at Willow Run, the researchers helped create practical laser holography during the early 1960s. [(holography>History of Holography.
