FROM THE ARCHIVE: 60 YEARS AGO IN AVIATION WEEK
Pioneer astronauts Alan Shepard and John Glenn were on hand for President John F. Kennedy’s tour of NASA’s Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston in September, 1962. The agency used the visit to showcase advanced mockups to Kennedy, including a lunar excursion module, a 1/12th scale model of a simulator to train Apollo pilots and a full-scale Gemini mockup. Kennedy, who 16 months earlier had announced plans to land humans on the moon, used his two-day tour ofNASA facilities to emphasize that the U.S. space program would continue to be civilian led and focused on peaceful exploration. “This apparently means that the military space program will remain relatively low-keyed in comparison with the rapidly expanding civil program,” reported Aviation Week’s Edward H. Kolcum. Meanwhile, the Manned Spaceflight Center was pitching a plan to develop Project Olympus, an 18-person hub-and-spoke space station that would be orbited starting in 1966. NASA’s Langley Research Center had already proposed a 38-man space station.

A New Class of Autonomous Combat Aircraft
Wednesday, Aug 31, 2022 10:00 EDT | 15:00 BST |16:00 CEST
The approach to human-machine teaming in aerial combat continues to evolve. New concepts often show a shift toward a new class of advanced autonomous wingmen “untethered” from the piloted fighters and bombers in a strike package, along with an array of multirole assets affordable enough to be expended as if they were munitions.
In this webinar, we will discuss the concepts emerging from government and industry leading to a new future of autonomous aircraft. |
