Couldnt be without it!

Objective

Four of Europe's leading research organizations - CERN, EMBL, ESA and ESO- propose a project which will illustrate clearly that the technologies which we all depend on for comfort, efficiency and quality of life, evolve from fundamental research without basic research we would not live in the way we do. The partner organizations will launch a survey to establish the top ten technologies that most affect people's every day life. The survey will be carried out in collaboration with professional survey institutes, and using a specially created web space to collect and analyze the opinions of participants in 23 European countries. Special educational kits will be produced and distributed to catalyze interest in the project. The outcome of the survey will then be the starting point for a series of web casts and broadcasts in several European languages that will explain the crucial role of the fundamental research in the creation of modern technology. The project will then be completed by a period of consolidation when the outcome of survey will be published on the web space and the web casts - downloadable from the site - will stay as a permanent educational resource.
