The 2010 conference is the31st in a series of annual weeklong winter engineering conferences designed for aerospace experts, academia, military personnel, and industry leaders in a stimulating and thought-provoking environment. The Conference promotes interdisciplinary understanding of aerospace systems, their underlying science and technology, and their applications to government and commercial endeavors. Attendees enjoy exceptional access to authors and invited speakers in a unique setting, fertile ground for networking and developing lasting relationships benefiting participants, their organizations, and the engineering, scientific, and aerospace communities far beyond the Conference. Papers are peer reviewed and typically provide the technical depth characteristic of journal articles; CD-ROM Proceedings are distributed at the Conference. Attendee comments:

"Excellent work, I really enjoyed this conference, well organized, great work on logistics."
"I liked the networking, session content, conference papers."
"Great organization. Fantastic plenary speakers."
"The atmosphere at this conference is great! Pleasant place, affable attendees, great fun."
"This is the best conference I've ever attended."
