Nanoscience by itself is to a large extent an imaging science where complex information about ultimately small pieces of matter is mapped into multi dimensional arrays. Nano-imaging goes far beyond microscopic projection images and has contributed to the evolution of mankind's scientific understanding which is continuously rolling over into technology. In this talk I will first use nano-imaging to explain some of the recent breakthroughs in nanoscience before I describe selected examples for the transfer of nano-science into nano-technology; All—of course—in the context of imaging. I will close with a rather personal outlook into future developments and long term visions.
