An article in BBC Science Focus magazine on the future of exploring the universe cites the work of Javid Bayandor, associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering. Bayandor’s lab, Crashworthiness for Aerospace Structures and Hybrids (CRASH), is working with NASA to build a spacecraft called BREEZE that would explore Venus.
“BREEZE is one of the first concepts offered to circumnavigate Venus from within its atmosphere and survive, making measurements on the dark side of the planet,” says Bayandor.
