Fifty years ago, the Apollo programme put a man on the Moon. Alongside the Manhattan Project, which had delivered the atomic bomb, it was probably the most complex and ambitious mobilisation of state and science the world has ever seen. It was a vast overreach of effort: achieving the aspiration required the invention and mastery of new technologies, alongside the systems of scheduling and control to use them. From project management to computer simulation, new disciplines emerged, and all of them in remarkably short order.

Autorenporträt
Julian Stodd is a writer, researcher, artist, and explorer. His work explores the context of the Social Age, a place where technology has evolved what it means to be human. His work typically exists at the intersection of systems: Social Leadership, Social and Collaborative Learning, and views of Culture, Innovation, and Change held more as social movements than structural affairs. Julian has written seventeen books and works to a principle of #WorkingOutLoud, sharing iterations every day and frequently finding new ways to be wrong.
