Titan Winged Aerobot

IRWINDALE, CA, July 6, 2016 – Global Aerospace Corporation announced today that, in collaboration with Northrop Grumman, it will be developing a new exploration vehicle for Saturn’s moon, Titan. Under a 2016 Phase I NASA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract, the team will develop the Titan Winged Aerobot (TWA) concept and produce a proof-of-concept prototype for Earth-based testing. TWA, inspired […]

Balloons Surveying Mars

ALTADENA, CA – Balloons outfitted with innovative steering devices and robot probes may be the best way to survey Mars, in detail, in preparation for human exploration. Dr. Alexey Pankine, a project scientist at the Global Aerospace Corporation, is presenting an analysis of balloon applications for Mars exploration at the Space Technology and Applications International Forum in […]

A NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR MONITORING GLOBAL DISASTERS

ALTADENA, CA – At the annual meeting of the Global Disaster Information Network in Rome, Italy last month, Global Aerospace Corporation introduced a new type of satellite that can provide communications and remote sensing data for disasters in remote areas of the world with no technological infrastructure. The new satellites, Stratospheric Satellites, consist of NASA-developed […]
