Solving aviation’s challenges. Through NASA innovation

Millions of passengers and millions of tons of cargo fly through the global airspace every day. It is a complex system that demands reliability and the ability to adapt immediately to changing traffic and conditions. The airspace over the United States is no different. NASA is part of a team that is developing solutions to the challenges facing our air transportation system.

MSC Software’s MD Adams was Selected for the Development of NASA Mars Exploration Rover

MSC Software announced that Washington University in St. Louis/Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)/Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has chosen MD Adams to develop a multi-element dynamic model of the NASA Mars Exploration Rover, Opportunity, and its interactions with soil and bedrock while driving over realistic terrain models.

SpaceX makes history with successful Dragon capsule mission

SpaceX an American space transport company founded by Elon Musk, has become the first commercial company in history to re-enter a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit. The craft, a fully functioning uncrewed Dragon capsule was launched on a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on December 8 and parachuted back to Earth around three hours later following maneuvers in orbit.

Puncture-proof Spring Tire picks up 2010 R&D 100 Award

Following a request from NASA, Goodyear last year developed an airless tire. The Spring Tire has now been recognized with a so-called “Oscar of Innovation” at the 44th Annual R&D 100 Awards in Orlando, Florida.

New High-Tech Material for Space Elevator Project Developed by Cambridge University Team

Ever since it was first popularised by Arthur C Clarke, the idea of a “space elevator” has languished in the realms of science fiction. But now a team of British scientists has taken the first step on what could be a high-tech stairway to heaven. Spurred on by a 4 millons dollars research prize from Nasa, a team at Cambridge University has created the world’s strongest ribbon: a cylindrical strand of carbon that combines lightweight flexibility with incredible strength and has the potential to stretch vast distances.

Create the Future Design Contest Sponsored by SolidWorks and Tech Briefs Media Group Opens for Entries

The Create the Future Design Contest sponsored by SolidWorks Corporation and Tech Briefs Media Group is accepting entries from inventors around the world. Engineers and product designers have until Oct. 17, 2008 to submit their ideas for the next invention that could change how we work, play, and live. In its seventh year, the contest celebrates entrants' abilities to explore new ways to design the, as yet, unimagined. Aside from the $20,000 grand prize, the contest will award a new powerful HP workstation to each of the category winners, and $100 to the top 6 most popular entries.
