A group of Aggies work at one of the leading private space companies in the world, Space Exploration Technologies - SpaceX. The company builds, tests, and launches rockets and capsules to further scientific research in space and space exploration.

Aerospace Engineering Assistant Professor Jonathan Rogers has been awarded the Army Research Office Young Investigator Award for his proposal “State Estimation for Complex Dynamical Systems Using Belief Function Theory.” The three-year award with funding of $50,000 was awarded through ARO’s Complex Dynamics and Systems program. Dr. Rogers has collaborated extensively with the Army Research Lab over the past five years with work on smart weapons guidance and control research.

The Jer-Nan Juang Astrodynamics Symposium will take place June 24 - 26. For more than forty years, Professor Jer-Nan Juang, National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), has been an outstanding contributor to astrodynamics in particular and dynamical system theory and applications broadly. He has made fundamental contributions to our understanding of the inverse problems (System Identification and Realization Theory) underlying input/output behavior, dynamics, estimation and control of poorly modeled systems; this body of work has had a pervasive impact on the field.
