The engineering aspects of flight are studied in aerospace engineering which is subdivided into aeronautics, which is the study of vehicles that travel through the air, and astronautics, the study of vehicles that travel through space, and in ballistics, the study of the flight of projectiles.

Space environment is a branch of astronautics, aerospace engineering and space physics that seeks to understand and address conditions existing in space that affect the operation of spacecraft.

It contains chemistry and biology classrooms and labs, medical and dental clinics, and civil engineering and astronautics laboratories.

In 1958, Adams received an aeronautical engineering degree from the University of Oklahoma and, after 18 months of astronautics study at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was selected in 1962 for the Experimental Test Pilot School at Edwards Air Force Base, California.

Along with his followers, the German Hermann Oberth and the American Robert H. Goddard, he is considered to be one of the founding fathers of rocketry and astronautics.

He is considered one of the founding fathers of rocketry and astronautics.

The early history of astronautics is theoretical: the fundamental mathematics of space travel was established by Isaac Newton in his 1687 treatise Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.

The Collier Trophy is an annual aviation award administered by the U. S. National Aeronautic Association ( NAA ), presented to those who have made " the greatest achievement in aeronautics or astronautics in America, with respect to improving the performance, efficiency, and safety of air or space vehicles, the value of which has been thoroughly demonstrated by actual use during the preceding year.

The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale ( FAI ) is the world governing body for air sports and aeronautics and astronautics world records.

This definition is accepted by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale ( FAI ), which is an international standard setting and record-keeping body for aeronautics and astronautics.

He is a member of organizations related to astronautics, including the Russian Chief Medical Commission on cosmonauts ' certification.

In astronautics, the Oberth effect is where the use of a rocket engine when travelling at high speed generates much more useful energy than one at low speed.

Isaev is the largest of six craters falling within the perimeter of Gagarin that have been named after pioneers of Russian aviation and astronautics.

FAI is the organization responsible for establishing the rules for record-setting and competition, and also for recognizing international achievements in aeronautics and astronautics.

* Robert J. Collier Trophy: Established in 1910, is awarded annually " for the greatest achievement in aeronautics or astronautics in America, with respect to improving the performance, efficiency, and safety of air or space vehicles, the value of which has been thoroughly demonstrated by actual use during the preceding year.

The Hermann Oberth society is an association named after Hermann Oberth, the German astronautics pioneer, which develops and builds rockets and trains engineers in space technology.

The British Interplanetary Society ( BIS ) founded in 1933 by Philip E. Cleator, is the oldest space advocacy organisation in the world whose aim is exclusively to support and promote astronautics and space exploration.

When studying aeronautics and astronautics in the 1950s, Kármán calculated that above an altitude of roughly, a vehicle would have to fly faster than orbital velocity in order to derive sufficient aerodynamic lift from the atmosphere to support itself.

It involves a knowledge of a variety of topics and development of specialised skills including ( but not limited to ): aeronautics ; astronautics ; programs to train astronauts ; space weather and forecasting ; ship-handling and small craft handling ; operation of various equipment ; spacecraft design and construction ; atmospheric takeoff and reentry ; orbital mechanics ( aka astrodynamics ); communications ; engines and rockets ; execution of evolutions such as towing, micro-gravity construction, and space docking ; cargo handling equipment, dangerous cargoes and cargo storage ; spacewalking ; dealing with emergencies ; survival at space and first aid ; fire fighting ; life support.

* Space environment: although more a sub-discipline of physics rather than astronautics, the effects of space weather and other environmental issues constitute an increasingly important field of study for spacecraft designers.

Visual backdrops and conceptual designs of spacecraft, space stations and a moon base depended somewhat on contributions from notable astronautics artist Chesley Bonestell.

Throughout 24 presentations and two debates with major Swiss media, this convention covered all subjects related to Mars exploration, from astronautics to architecture, not forgetting geology, the study of which remains its key objective.

She went on to earn a doctorate in aeronautics / astronautics from MIT in 1987.

He received a master of science degree in astronautics from Purdue University, Indiana in 1966.

With his many ideas he became one of the founders of astronautics.

MIT was named a sea-grant college in 1976 to support its programs in oceanography and marine sciences and was named a space-grant college in 1989 to support its aeronautics and astronautics programs.

Herman Potočnik ( pseudonym Hermann Noordung ; December 22, 1892 – August 27, 1929 ) was an Austro-Hungarian rocket engineer and pioneer of cosmonautics ( astronautics ) of Slovene ethnicity.

On June 5, 1929, Oberth won the first ( Robert Esnault-Pelterie-André-Louis Hirsch ) " Rep-Hirsch Prize " of the French Astronomical Society for the encouragement of astronautics in his book Wege zur Raumschiffahrt (" Ways to Spaceflight ") that had expanded Die Rakete zu den Planetenräumen to a full-length book.

The term astronautics was coined by analogy with aeronautics.

In spite of this, astronautics did not become a practical discipline until the mid-20th century.

Although many regard astronautics itself as a rather specialized subject, engineers and scientists working in this area must be knowledgeable about many distinct fields of knowledge.
