Very cool recap document on state of the art sequential convex programming and lossless convexification techniques. It's written by the main authors who work on these, worth a look if you're into autonomous trajectory planning.

Cool repository with python source code for GNC applications of AI technology.

Cool project from a few years ago! Checked for some recent updates but they seem to have adapted the concept to structural health monitoring and visual vibrometry to estimate material properties and wear.

A somewhat eclectic paper about events collected with an event camera onboard the ISS, courtesy of Western Sydney University and...the US AirForce Academy.

About "Papers and patents are becoming less disruptive over time" https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-05543-x. "Overall, our results deepen understanding of the evolution of knowledge and may guide career planning and science policy. To promote disruptive science and technology, scholars may be encouraged to read widely and given time to keep up with the rapidly expanding knowledge frontier. Universities may forgo the focus on quantity, and more strongly reward research quality56, and perhaps more fully subsidize year-long sabbaticals. Federal agencies may invest in the riskier and longer-term individual awards that support careers and not simply specific projects57, giving scholars the gift of time needed to step outside the fray, inoculate themselves from the publish or perish culture, and produce truly consequential work. Understanding the decline in disruptive science and technology more fully permits a much-needed rethinking of strategies for organizing the production of science and technology in the future."
