SUMMARY:2024 YVONNE C. BRILL LECTURE FEATURING PENINA AXELRAD\, Oct 1\, 2024\, DC\, 11:00 am-2:00 pm ET
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 Yvonne C. Brill Lecture\, sponsored by AIAA and the National Academy of Engineering\, will be presented on October 1\, 2024 at the National Academy of Sciences building\, 2101 Constitution Ave.\, NW\, Washington\, DC from 11:00 am-2:00 pm ET. \nThe recipient of the 2024 Brill Lecture is Penina Axelrad\, Distinguished Professor at the University of Colorado Boulder\, who will speak about “The Evolution and Impact of Global Navigation Satellite Systems.” \nMore information and registration instructions are on the AIAA website\, which says: \n2024 Award Recipient:\nPenina Axelrad\nUniversity of Colorado Boulder \n“The Evolution and Impact of Global Navigation Satellite Systems” \nGlobal Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) provide the basis for smart phones to guide us unquestioningly to our destinations\, safe and flexible navigation for tens of thousands of airline flights per day\, seamless synchronization of power grids and timing of financial transactions\, AND for scientific observation of Earth’s variable gravity field\, water content of soil and vegetation on its surface\, and even its atmosphere and ocean surface winds. This talk will explore what we can learn from the remarkable evolution of a military navigation system into a global utility\, and consider where today’s new advances in utilization of signals-of-opportunity\, optical communications\, atomic clocks\, and quantum sensing might lead. \nAbout the Yvonne C. Brill Lecture in Aerospace Engineering\nThe Yvonne C. Brill Lecture in Aerospace Engineering was established in 2013 in memory of Yvonne Brill\, pioneering rocket scientist\, AIAA Honorary Fellow and NAE member. She was a trailblazer at a time when women were not encouraged to enter the science and technology fields. The Lecture emphasizes research or engineering issues for space travel and exploration\, aerospace education of students and the public\, and other aerospace issues such as ensuring a diverse and robust engineering community. This biennial lecture is held at the National Academy of Engineering building in Washington\, DC\, in October. \n
