Space Technology Helps Save Lives on
Earth 07/23/2004 06:25 AM
Roland Piquepaille writes "Technology developed for space travel has been adapted for uses on Earth for a long time. But now, three articles report that some current customizations can save lives. For example, SPACE.com writes that space technology is entering hospitals. It says that a system originally intended to keep clean the space station Mir, and later the International Space Station (ISS), is now used in hospitals to build temporary 'clean rooms' -- virtually bacteria-free -- around patients. And a video infrared camera developed by NASA's JPL to study Earth is being modified into a brain scanning device searching for tumors. Elsewhere, National Geographic is saying that satellites are starting to aid earthquake predictions. And ESA's satellites are looking at the 'rogue' monster waves which have has sunk many of the 200 supertankers and container ships exceeding 200 meters in length during the last two decades. You need to read the articles mentioned above to realize how all these bleeding edge technologies can really help us on Earth, but if you have a limited time, please read my blog for selected excerpts and photos." NASA has always tried to make a big deal out of how their innovations later show up elsewhere, though some have suggested that they've overhyped this aspect of their research. Still, amusing to note these stories coming out just as a big battle is going on concerning NASA's budget.

Embryos 03/13/2003 02:12 PM
An In-vitro fertilization company in Australia is criticizing the board of a Melbourne hospital for the long delays in granting approval for two separate designer babies during the last two years. These designer babies are being engineered specifically to provide healing stem cells for a sibling, from their umbilical cords. Last year, while waiting for a decision from the hospital, a local couple naturally conceived a genetically-matching son. His stem cells were recently implanted in his dying sister, who is inflicted with Fanconi's anaemia, and her fate should be known within a few weeks. The more recent delay has been over another couple's child, who is believed to have sickle-cell anemia. Authorities have sought opinions from theologians, ethicists, and reproductive scientists while debating yesterday's decision to approve the procedure, after a year of discussion and hearings.
