A prototype of the AC 'Biode' battery has been developed at 20W.

NASA Armstrong flight-tests some of the nation’s most unique aircraft and aeronautical systems.

A numerical modeling tool allows for a better understanding of rotating detonation engines (RDEs).

A lake is usually a picture of serenity, perhaps the last place you’d expect to find a flying-fish robot launching itself 85 feet in the air.

NASA’s crawler-transporter 2 will carry the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft from the Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Pad 39B for the launch of Artemis 1. One of the few women to ever...

NASA is set to return to the Moon in 2024. But why the lunar south pole?

Microrobots that can deliver drugs to specific spots inside the body while being monitored and controlled from outside the body have been developed that also can treat tumors in the...

We interviewed an industry expert about the role of inductive position sensors in the IIoT.

Landing is stressful on a rocket’s legs because they must handle the force from the impact with the landing pad. One way to combat this is to build legs out of materials that absorb some of...

Lockheed Martin's Rob Chambers is working on a spacecraft that will bring astronauts back to the lunar surface.

Engineers today are feeling the pressure to get more done in less time, be experts in multiple disciplines, and use their resources more efficiently to maximize profits. This environment is shifting the way...

Sign up now to hear how NASA plans to get back to the Moon by 2024.

The Moon is a treasure chest of science. The lunar samples returned during the Apollo program dramatically changed our view of the solar system, yet they just scratch the...

Just 54 years ago, the first photograph of Mars from a passing spacecraft appeared to show a hazy atmosphere. Now, decades of exploration on the planet itself has shown it to be a...

On September 1, 1961, NASA requested appropriations for initial land purchases on Merritt Island on Florida’s east coast to support the Apollo Lunar Landing Program. Designers quickly began developing...

For the first time in a generation, NASA is building a human spacecraft for deep-space missions that will usher in a new era of space...

On July 20, 1969, humans walked on another world for the first time in history. After a landing that included dodging a lunar crater and boulder...

Employing fluid power to achieve mechanical motion can be implemented via hydraulics using uncompressible liquids or via pneumatics using compressible gasses; typically, air. The latter provides several...

Directly converting electrical power to heat is easy; however, converting heat into electrical power is not as easy. To address this issue, a tiny silicon-based device was developed that can...

Three new unmanned helicopters were unveiled at AUVSI’s XPONENTIAL show in Chicago.

A Navy Sea Glider can look for a target in mid-air or underwater.
