Creative Aero Engineering Solutions @caeroengineeringso.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Who knew it would take twenty years for the return of civil supersonic aircraft? After the Concorde retired in 2003, engineers got busy working on eliminating the loud sonic boom over land. We're not there yet, but we're getting closer. Leading the way are Spike Aerospace and Boom Supersonic. Boom!✈️ 000
Creative Aero Engineering Solutions @caeroengineeringso.bsky.social · 31/07/2026What do you get when you cross a robot with an astronaut? You get a robonaut! Robonaut 2, also known as R2, is the first humanoid robot to travel to space. No, that's not the same R2 from Star Wars, but he is being developed to be an assistant for various tasks.
