...Chick's Heartbeat. NASA Consultant Quentin L. Hartwig reported a fascinating example of the application of space research to earth-bound medicine. To record the impact of a speck of interplanetary dust on a man or vehicle in space, Engineer Vernon Rogallo devised an instrument so sensitive that it registered the force of a single grain of salt dropped less than one-half of an inch. Then, at the NASA Ames research center in California, Rogallo overheard a cafeteria conversation between two biologists: How could they record the heartbeat of a six-day-old chick embryo without piercing...

As proof, Rogallo exhibited the live and healthy chick of a bobwhite quail whose incubation had been monitored but undisturbed.
