Aurora Flight Sciences is quietly turning a radical research sketch into metal, bolting on 30 ft wings that will help prove whether a jet can steer with air instead of moving parts. The X-65, built ...
Active flow control (AFC) encompasses a range of techniques designed to alter fluid flow characteristics in real time by introducing targeted actuation. Central to many of these methods are fluidic ...
Expansion of flow control solutions across industrial gas, specialty gas, high-purity gas, and medical gas applications. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Control Devices, a portfolio company ...
In this photo taken from a chase plane, the Boeing ecoDemonstrator 757 flight test airplane —with NASA's Active Flow Control technology installed on the tail—makes a final approach to King County ...
It'll fly instead using Active Flow Control (AFC), using a series of nozzle arrays along the wings connected to a pressurized air system, capable of blowing controlled bursts of air that can directly ...
Boeing subsidiary Aurora Flight Sciences has begun manufacturing a secretive new X-plane for the US military, designated the X-65. Aurora is under contract to develop the experimental jet aircraft for ...
Boeing subsidiary Aurora Flight Sciences has won a US defence contract to develop an experimental aircraft that can fly without traditional control surfaces like rudders, flaps and ailerons. The US ...
In order to enhance aircraft efficiency designers are increasingly utilizing lightweight, high aspect ratio wing designs. This is because lower weight means less energy is required to keep the ...
It will orbit the ringed planet 74 times during its four year mission and execute 45 flybys of Titan, some of them only hundreds of kilometers from the moon’s surface. To keep the probe on its ...
