From aircraft to space exploration and more, the aerospace industry is known for overcoming seemingly impossible challenges. Join us as we brainstorm the next generation of “DARPA hard” problems.

Now in its sixth year, the AIAA Idea Challenge at AIAA SciTech Forum continues to provide young professionals with the opportunity to collaborate, develop ideas, and present during a Forum 360 session. This year’s workshop format will offer an opportunity for all forum attendees to participate and share their thoughts as young professionals guide them in problem formulation. The workshop will focus on technologies and opportunities that are more than 10 years away from being feasible, innately “DARPA hard”, rather than looking for solutions to problems. The outcome will be a list of aerospace challenges that will be widely shared within the AIAA community.
