This Glider's Glide: A Masterpiece Of Flight Technology

Jul 1, 2011 · looking to the future, us company planetspace is looking at plans to develop a space glider called the silver dart, based on a 1960’s us air force flight dynamics. Future trends include electric propulsion systems and autonomous flying. Gliders provide insight into how aircraft can achieve sustained flight without propulsion, relying instead on natural forces and carefully designed structures. This section serves as an.
