Scientific paper

The behavior of interstellar gas and dust is responsible for many intriguing mysteries of the Universe, giving the far-infrared/submm spectral region a special importance. A new generation of FIR/Submm space instruments is needed to realize the full potential of this broad spectral range. We show how these advanced FIR/Submm missions can make basic contributions to our understanding of questions ranging from the birth of stars and planets and the process of comet and asteroid impact on the Earth to the history of star formation and active galactic nuclei over the life of the Universe.
