Technology In Aircrafts

Samuel Doroja

Aerospace engineering is a branch of engineering focused solely on the development of spacecraft and aircrafts. One current study I looked at relates to the general idea of technologies within an aircraft that keep it airborne. The most important forces are that of lift, weight, thrust, and drag, all acting along with the object’s design which makes it air-worthy. Future aircraft are using fewer parts and morphing wing designs to help boost fuel economy. Aircrafts drag, especially at high speeds, which uses more fuel. Compared to flying insects, planes are not very fuel efficient. People can gain the understanding of the very real possibilities of better airplanes for travel. I plan on continuing with the research practicum and hope to gain more knowledge in the field of aerospace engineering.
