WASHINGTON, March 12 (UPI) -- The U.S. space agency released its "Research Opportunities in Aeronautics 2008" list, soliciting research in support of its supersonics project.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration project seeks to address technical challenges associated with supersonic flight over land and to develop technologies required to build future high mass entry systems to enable the exploration of Mars and other planets.
NASA said it expects educational institutions, non-profit organizations and industries engaged in fundamental research will be the primary research award recipients.
