How to Conduct a BSA Merit Badge Fair

AIAA Members: make sure you are signed in to the site  with your member credentials to be able to access the on-demand replay.

Boy Scouts of America (BSA) / Scouting America is a youth serving organization that uses a merit badge system. Merit badges give scouts the opportunity to investigate different areas of knowledge, skills and careers. Watch the recording of this webinar – hosted by AIAA’s STEM K-12 Outreach Committee – for an overview of these impactful initiatives and discover how to get involved:

  • Teaching the basics of STEM merit badges
  • Holding a STEM merit badge event
  • Introduce scouts to Subject Matter Experts (SME) in a range of disciplines
  • Encouraging scouts to pursue a career in STEM
  • And more!

AIAA members have so much knowledge to share. Learn how your AIAA Section can positively influence the next generation.

No prior experience with scouting is needed for this webinar.

AIAA Volunteer Leadership Webinar: Leading with Influence

Laura McGill, past president of AIAA, discusses the importance of leadership in volunteer organizations like AIAA, emphasizing the need for alignment with the organization’s strategic plan and effective management of volunteers. She also highlights the significance of outreach and engagement in promoting AIAA’s activities and encouraged members to learn from existing volunteer leadership roles. Lastly, she stresses the importance of showing gratitude to volunteers and maintaining a positive attitude to make the volunteer experience enjoyable.

2024 Mary Jackson Named Lecture

This webinar is free and open to the public.

The Mary Jackson Named Lecture is given in honor of Mary Jackson (1921-2005), who in 1958 became the first black female aerospace engineer at the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

Aerospace Perspectives Series: Testing and Validating Electric Aircraft Powertrain and Propulsion Systems from an Automotive Electrification Perspective

This webinar is hosted by AIAA, is presented by dSPACE, and is open to the public.

During this webinar, dSPACE, EMPS Consulting, and AIAA will review the adjacencies found when developing electrical powertrain and propulsion systems in the automotive and aerospace industries. The panelists will share all the lessons that have been learned from years of testing automotive vehicle electrification and how these lessons can be implemented when testing electric aircrafts. Given the current push for cleaner energy in both the automotive and aerospace industries, dSPACE is well positioned to bridge the gap in testing, validation, and verification between these giants of the transportation industry.

Challenges and of Hypersonic Flight Experiments using Sounding Rockets

In this webinar Ali Gülhan, German Aerospace Center (DLR), will discuss how high-quality validation data that is representative of the real flight environment is necessary for the simulation-based design of flight hardware. Since ground testing facilities have limitations to duplicate the flight environment and numerical tools still have shortcomings in modelling high temperature gas phenomena and gas-surface interaction in such environments, availability of flight data is essential. A complementary validation approach using ground and flight testing for gathering reliable data and validation of numerical tools also is required. Gülhan will explain how simulation of the hot hypersonic flight environment in ground facilities is limited and requires data from further flight experiments. Hypersonic flight experiments by means of multistage sounding rocket configurations are seen as the most cost-efficient options to gather valuable flight data.

Aerospace Perspectives Series: Eutelsat Group’s Journey to Real-Time Spacecraft Monitoring

5 December 2024 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time)

This webinar is hosted by AIAA, is presented by InfluxData, and is open to the public.

During this webinar, we’ll explore how Eutelsat Group, a global communications company, harnessed the power of InfluxDB to monitor and analyze telemetry data from its OneWeb constellation of hundreds of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. As Eutelsat Group works to provide high-speed, low-latency broadband access worldwide, managing the vast influx of time series data from its growing satellite network presents unique challenges.

Our speaker will provide a look at Eutelsat Group’s data architecture, discussing how InfluxDB time series database integrates with their existing systems to provide real-time insights into spacecraft health, performance, and network status. We’ll explore the custom dashboards and alerting mechanisms built on top of InfluxDB, enabling Eutelsat Group’s operations team to proactively manage their fleet.
