I was an engineer working as part of an IBM team to build a mobile satellite command and control center for monitoring missile launches from space.

This contract was part of Reagan s#oestar Wars#missile defense system. Whenever a missile was launched, the heat plume coming out of the back of the rocket produces a distinct heat signature instantly detectable by satellites tens of thousands of miles away with infrared sensors.

The technology we were using over 25 years ago could instantly detect missile launches anywhere on earth, within seconds of the launch.

Nuclear bomb testing Carbon-14 is produced naturally by cosmic rays interacting with atoms in the Earth's atmosphere.

But in the 1950s and 1960s the United states and the former Soviet union conducted hundreds of aboveground nuclear bomb tests that nearly doubled the concentration of carbon-14 in the atmosphere.

Scientists and conservationists are alarmed by the damage that mining is causing to the land and its people.

what to do with the mines once they are exhausted, and they leave behind mountains of sand and rock,

Now the government is tightening the screws on illegal mining, and scientists monitoring its impacts are on the front lines of a battle between miners,

the Peruvian government banned mining in Madre de dios outside a designated 500,000-hectare corridor (see map)

and ordered that all miners must formally register a yearlong process that requires the mine operators to produce a work plan, an environmental-impact assessment and a cleanup strategy, among other requirements.

By setting aside a specific area for mining, the govern  ment hopes to regulate the industry more effectively

and the Madre de dios Mining Federation in regional capital Puerto Maldonado has campaigned strongly against the legislation.

The government began raiding mining camps outside the corridor in late March, but in many of those areas miners have returned

Only around 4, 000 miners in the region have met the government s deadline of 13 Â June to register their mining activities,

But mining is already beginning to encroach on these areas, and was threatening to become more widespread.

2011) showed that mining is deforesting Madre de dios faster than any other activity. Using satellite imagery,

the study s authors found that deforestation in two prominent mining zones increased sixfold between 2003 and 2009,

including many of the mining hotspots. Most previous mapping studies have assigned land to only two categories  forested

towns and mining areas together, and making it difficult to track the impact of the gold rush.

including mining, agriculture and five different classes of forestry. Scullion says that there is a misconception among locals that researchers are against mining.

Not so, he says  he just wants it to be done in a more sustainable way,

whether land should be used for logging, mining or conservation. The data could also help to guide where Â

Mining is also taking its toll on local people. An estimated 45-50 Â tonnes of mercury are used each year in Madre de dios to extract the prized gold,

instead used a gene gun to fire DNA-coated gold particles into plant cells. Some of that DNA is incorporated then into the genome.

He notes that Agrobacterium inserts genes more efficiently than the gene-gun method. Although zinc-fingers are appealing for their specificity

If he had used a gene gun, he would have inserted DNA haphazardly and in a manner more likely to damage other sites in the genome yet this remains the unregulated method."
