FROM THE INSTITUTE
As we enter 2026, our community stands on the threshold of tomorrow. The future of aerospace won’t be shaped by a single researcher or “eureka” moment. Rather, necessity will drive experimentation and risk-taking, leading to the next breakthroughs. AIAA will connect people doing this vital work as we look to our north star, to be the most trusted source for aerospace knowledge exchange. I look forward to everything we will learn together at AIAA SciTech Forum this week as it propels us toward the next wave of aerospace breakthroughs.
