_Big Science, Innovation, and Societal Contributions_ offers a
connection between Big Science and its societal impacts from a
multidisciplinary perspective, drawing on physics and astrophysics
scholars to explain the reasoning behind their work, and how such
knowledge can be applied to everyday life. Through simplifying complex
scientific concepts, _Big Science, Innovation, and Societal
Contributions_ explains the evolution of Big Science experiments and
what it takes to manage and maintain complex scientific experiments
with a human centred approach. Further, it examines the motivations
behind international efforts to develop capital-intensive and human
resource-rich, large-scale multi-national scientific investments to
solve fundamental research problems concerning our future. Drawing on
reliable scientific evidence, multi-disciplinary perspectives, and
personal insights from collider physics, detectors, accelerator, and
telescopes research, the volume outlines the mechanisms, benefits, and
methodologies, as well as the potential challenges and short-comings,
of Big Science, to learn and reflect on for future initiatives. This
