...government should work towards some arms control agreement on biological and chemical warfare testing, he said, noting that sophisticated techniques now available might be able to detect a test thousands of miles away...
...Unlike Huntley and Brinkley, Walter Cronkite has no need of "sly side comments" to get his opinion across. The alert viewer can immediately detect his views on any given story by observing his facial expression at the conclusion of an on-the-scene report...
Once the radar signature of a U.S. satellite has been determined, it is relatively easy to detect changes in the spacecraft's known configuration. In June, RSA was employed to discover which of four solar panels on a secret Air Force satellite had not flopped into place. When telemetry failed to confirm that a boom on a gravity gradient satellite had extended, RSA recognized a change in the radar pattern that proved the boom had stretched into place. A study of the radar echoes reflected from the first Nimbus weather satellite provided tumble and spin data that were unavailable...
...undergoing a sensitive and still experimental examination designed to detect changes in blood flow and temperature that may be produced by vas cular disorders. Capable of indicating temperature variations as small as .047° F, the liquid crystals he has been painted with were originally developed for testing mechanical stresses in deli cate instruments. But their quickly identifiable color changes may prove far more valuable for humans...
...could determine, Russian researchers seem to go out of their way not to learn from the rest of the world; they doggedly carry on experiments already completed elsewhere. Spillover from space research has played a key role in the growth of American medical instrumentation, but Dr. Hall could detect no such beneficial results in the U.S.S.R. Electronic devices are so scarce, he said, that they are "virtually unavailable. Medical technology, as we know it, is nonexistent...
