specific missions. In many cases, the fast development technology and fabrication
capability allow systems and instruments to be designed and fabricated that could
not have been thought of a few years ago. This development requires strong
interaction between the space scientist and the engineer, who can use a toolbox of
new capabilities of microsystems to generate new instruments.
