VIVAERO NASA selects four university teams to advance future aviation research NASA has selected four university teams to help the agency transform the future of aviation through projects ranging from high-supersonic propulsion systems to low-noise routes for small aircraft flying through cities. The agency made awards through its University Leadership Initiative , which offers student teams the opportunity to contribute to real-world flight research that advances NASA’s goals in aeronautics. This year’s awardees are pursuing projects that align with NASA strategic objectives, including innovation in commercial high-speed aircraft , the development of new tools that can lead to transformational aviation breakthroughs , safer and more efficient air traffic management , and the integration of new air transportation options into the national airspace . “With these four new awards, the University Innovation project is leaning in on NASA’s aeronautics mission priorities,” said Andrew...
