10 | Computer Assisted Sonic Topography | BBB | Technology Products | Electronics | |||||||
Computer Assisted Sonic Topography "Thumper" was the nickname given to a large, box-shaped machine that was used on Dr. Alan Grant's fossil excavation site near Snakewater, Montana. It was designed to fire a soft lead slug into the ground within the vicinity of fossilized remains, creating shock waves to be registered by a nearby computer. The computer would then assemble an X-ray-like image of the area, allowing the paleontologists to determine the size of the trench dug to control water runoff. This procedure was known as 'computer-assisted sonic topography,' or CAST. | |||||||||||

It was like being in a room full of giant pepper mills, he thought. Muldoon opened the cap of one, reached in, and withdrew a sphere. He turned it in the light, frowning. "I'll be damned."
