Abstract

The European project of search for disruptive space technology has attracted attention because of its systematic advantages. From the perspective of methodology the experience of this project can provide reference for the systematic study of disruptive technology in China. This paper studies the primary search and evaluation process of disruptive space technology in Europe, analyzes the theoretical basis, evaluation criteria and evaluation methods based on STEP framework, and introduces the technology roadmap of disruptive space technology. Through summarizing the experience of European disruptive space technology method system in theory, method and implementation, this paper draws enlightenment for China to promote its disruptive technology innovation, such as paying attention to the analysis of technology application scenarios, establishing expert resume information platform, constructing multi-source information support system, and strengthening the management of technology development planning.
