Scientists film flash of light at moment of human conception. Kinda cool, eh? And the brightness of the light apparently signals the strength of the fertilized egg so the egg on the lower left must be a conservative.

      • The article did mention that they would be able to use this technology to determine which of the fertilized eggs would be more viable and provide the best chance for a healthy baby. Looks like they are already planning to use it for selective breeding to provide prospective parents with a choice of sorts. To me, that suggests they are aborting the others.
