Design in Miniature

The cells of the human body can produce at least 100,000 different types of proteins, all with a unique function. The information to make each of these complicated molecular machines is stored on the well-known [Pg.38]

We think that we have done very well with human technology, packing information very densely on to computer hard drives, chips, and CD-ROM disks. However, these all store information on the surface, whereas DNA stores it in three dimensions. It is by far the densest information storage mechanism known in the universe. [Pg.38]

Let s look at the amount of information that could be contained in a pinhead volume of DNA. If all this information were written into paperback books, it would make a pile of such books 500 times higher than from here to the moon The design of such an incredible system of information storage indicates a vastly intelligent Designer. [Pg.39]


Microwave radiometer consists of an electronic switch, circulator, isolator, low-noise amplifier, filter, amplitude detector and miniature reference noise source with the temperature sensor. All foregoing components parts must be designed in miniature sizes using MMIC and plastic materials. [Pg.444]
