Research programs
SPACE SYSTEMS
Space occupation
We address key challenges to achieve off-planet activities that require vast increases in current technology to operate long-term in space and support biological life.
PLASMA SCIENCE
Stable fusion
We are working toward stable fusion reactions for future applications in energy and deep space propulsion.
INTEGRATED FLIGHT SCIENCES & CONTROL
Aerospace systems
We research composite materials, flexible structures, load alleviation, hypersonics and more to understand comprehensive flight systems.
FLUIDS
Efficiency
We research fluids to boost aero- and hydro-dynamic efficiency for energy savings and higher stability.
STRUCTURES
Innovative forms
We develop structures and composites that are stronger, lighter, and adaptable for efficiency and safety.
CONTROLS
Remote control
We refine guidance, navigation, and control of unmanned systems as well as optimization of networked systems.
Controls research
Blazing a trail with wildfire research
An increase in wildfires across the nation has lit a fire under our researchers who are developing new technologies and hazard prevention protocols.
STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
Senna Keesing
A&A undergraduate and Brooke Owens Fellow
Senna Keesing possesses a diverse range of research interests spanning particle physics, submarine navigation, and, of course, aerospace engineering. Her research in the UW Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX) focuses on detecting a hypothetical particle that could explain dark matter. Her well-rounded education of the cosmos will serve her well for future work on planetary probes and deep space missions.
RELATED STORY
Keesing is a Brooke Owens fellow
Senna Keesing joins the latest class of "Brookies" and will intern with Vast Space this summer.
