Some fundamental concepts now used in systems science have been present in other disciplines for many centuries, while equally fundamental conceptsconcepts have independently emerged as recently as 40 years ago (Flood and Carson 1993).

2003. "A case for service systems engineering," Journal of Systems Science and Systems Engineering, vol.

Harry Katzan defined the newly emerging field of service science: "Service science is defined as the application of scientific, engineering, and management competencies that a service-provider organization performs that creates value for the benefit of the client or customer" (Katzan 2008, vii).

Even more recently in 2013, an asteroid exploded over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk, damaging buildings and sending more than a hundred people to area hospitals.

In 2019, New Horizons visited Arrokoth, giving us our first close look at the structure and composition of one of the most primitive solar system objects.

A NASA mission called Lucy is slated for launch in October 2021 to visit 7 of Jupiter’s Trojans for the first time, helping us figure out what really happened in the early solar system.
