Abstract:

Asacommunity, ourgoalistounderstandthefundamentalnatureofenergy, matter, space, andtime, andto apply that knowledge to understand the birth, evolution and fate of the universe. Our scope is broad and we use many tools: accelerator, non-accelerator & cosmological observations, all have a critical role to play. The progress we have made towards our goal, the tools we need to progress further, the opportunities we have for achieving transformational paradigm-altering scientific advances: great discoveries, and the importance of being a united global field to make progress toward our goal are the topics of this talk.
