A real need exists for ways to bridge the gap between basic
research and prac tical application, for faster utilization of new
discoveries and new developments in the world of technology, and
for technical transfer of defense and space accomplish ments to the
civilian economy. The problem is compounded by the torrential flow
of technical information. Thirty million books are available on
technical subjects, the total increasing at the rate of six hundred
every day. There are one hundred thousand technical journals. More
scientific work has been published in the past ten years than in
all preceding recorded history. Scientists and engineers only a few
years beyond academic pursuits are already encountering a
continuing need for retraining and expansion of their own
knowledge. At the same time, the re searchers - scientists,
engineers, students - must exhibit bold creative thinking to evolve
new technology, to better understand nature's secrets, to conceive
new theories, and to reduce old theories to practical utilization.
Research in the physical sciences and the engineering sciences
provides the ever-flowing spring of knowledge for the investigation
of new ideas. Such research is sometimes hindered by classification
as "basic" or "applied. " There are many times when a research
program has no immediate or ultimate objective and is truly
contributing to our reservoir of knowledge - a reservoir which will
certainly be tapped in the future.
