Â鶹ÊÓƵ

Connected DMV has announced that Â鶹ÊÓƵ, one of the nation’s most innovative and fastest-growing public research universities, will serve as the Lead Academic Partner for spaceNEXT, the inaugural global convening focused on the commercialization of space and a flagship program of Connected DMV’s Potomac Center for the New Space Economy. 

College of Engineering and Computing students are instrumental in building the payload for Â鶹ÊÓƵ's historic Landolt space mission.

Careers in space policy are lifting off. Aerospace veteran and Schar School graduate Hina Kazmi introduces a new course in space policy that takes graduate degrees to an elevated level in a burgeoning field of study.

Â鶹ÊÓƵ researcher Anamaria Berea was selected to serve on NASA's Decadal Astrobiology Research and Exploration Strategy (DARES) Task Force 1.

Mechanical engineering’s Jeffrey Moran continues to prepare an experiment to be carried out on the International Space Station (ISS). Via a powerful microscope in microgravity, the team plans to observe how common atmospheric aerosols move across a temperature gradient, information which would inform climate predictions, geoengineering proposals, and even HVAC applications.
