MINI TALKS
Since the National Aeronautical and Space Administration was established in 1961,
NASA has been engaged in an extensive research effort, which, in cooperation with private
industry, has transferred technology to the international marketplace. Hundreds of everyday
products can be traced back to the space mission, including cordless electrical tools, airtight
food packaging, water purification systems, and even scratch coating for eye glasses.
In addition, may advances in medical technology can be traced back to NASA
laboratories. First used to detect flaws in spacecraft, ultrasound is now standard equipment in
almost every hospital for diagnosis and assessment of injuries and disease; equipment first
used by NASA to transmit images from space to Earth is used to assist in cardiac imaging,
and lasers first used to test satellites are now used in surgical procedures. Under-the-skin
implants for the continuous infusion of drugs, and small pacemakers to regulate the heart
were originally designed to monitor the physical condition of astronauts in space.
Finally, with the help of images that were obtained during space missions, and NASA
technology, archaeologists have been able to explore the Earth. Cities lost under desert sands
have been located and rediscovered, and the sea floor has been mapped using photographs
from outer space.
