55 Conclusions (1/2) 50 years after Sputnik1, space has become an essential element of our life and for our survival, We enter an era of globalization and space systems are global by nature, International cooperation is therefore crucial to ensure that all the elements of the essential space network are at the disposal of all humans 11/24/2010 R-M. Bonnet 55
56 Conclusions (2/2) Most of the Grand questions will find an answer through the continuous progress in our understanding of the fundamental laws of nature. The rigorous scientific approach finds its purest applications in our attempts to answer these Grand questions. It offers a unique example to those who by ignorance, or arrogance. or personal interest claim that science is wrong. Uncertainty and progress have always characterized science The grand questions offer an arena for educating the public at large in the value of rigorous scientific reasoning, constantly leading to more discoveries and also to skepticism, both being an integral part of scientific progress and understanding 11/24/2010 R-M.
