High-energy astrophysics space missions have pioneered and demonstrated the power of legacy data sets for generating new discoveries, especially when analysed in ways the original researchers could not have anticipated.

HEAVENS provides analysis services for a number of recent and important high-energy missions. These services will allow any user to perform on-the-fly data analysis to produce straightforwardly scientific results for any sky position, time and energy intervals without requiring mission specific software or detailed instrumental knowledge. The ultimate goal is to ensure that the data of the present instruments can be effectively used by everyone and everywhere for the decades to follow.

By providing a straightforward interface to complex data and data analysis, HEAVENS will make the data and the process of generating science products available to the public and higher education. HEAVENS will promote the visibility of high-energy and multi-wavelengths astrophysics to the society at large and will encourage the public to actively explore the data. This is a fundamental step to transmit the values of science and to evolve towards the knowledge society.
