Towards the 3-D imaging of the collision region on the femtometer scale

A brief review will be given on the discovery of the HBT (Hanbury-Brown and Twiss) effect, where photons were exploited to determine stellar dimensions, and its generalized application in high energy physics, where hadrons are used to determine spatio-temporal characteristics of hadronic sources. Interesting and inspiring new directions will be highlighted, including source imaging methods at the femtometer scale.
