Aerospace/Aeronautical engineering
Aerospace engineering
involves
building
designing
testing
controlling
machines that fly
Aerospace engineers typically work in two main areas
Aerospace
The terms ''aeronautical'' and ''astronautical''
include the word ''nautical'' (pronounced NAWT-uh-cuhl)
which refers to travel in some kind of ship.
Aeronautical Engineering
Aeronautical engineers work on machines that fly inside Earth's atmosphere
They work on things like
jets
helicopters
blimps
zeppelins
gliders.
They mainly work on things that transport people around IN EARTH,
Astronautical engineering
this type of engineering is also known as rocket science
They are responsible for overseeing the entire process for developing aircraft and aerospace products
Things they work on
rockets
missiles
communication satellites
space launchers
space vehicles
direct broadcasting satellites
What Aerospace engineering have to know and do
Aerospace engineers need a strong background in science and mathematics. They have to give a lot of thought to the materials used in ''flying machines,'' so that they aren't too heavy, can travel at fast speeds, and are safe.
