This book describes prominent technological achievements within a
very successful space science mission: the Herschel space
observatory. Focusing on the various processes of innovation it
offers an analysis and discussion of the social, technological and
scientific context of the mission that paved the way to its
development. It addresses the key question raised by these
processes in our modern society, i.e.: how knowledge management of
innovation set the conditions for inventing the future? In that
respect the book is based on a transdisciplinary analysis of the
programmatic complexity of Herschel, with inputs from space
scientists, managers, philosophers, and engineers. This book is
addressed to decision makers, not only in space science, but also
in other industries and sciences using or building large machines.
It is also addressed to space engineers and scientists as well as
students in science and management.
