Our third annual Advanced Propulsion and Energy collaboration meeting was held online January 26 – 28, 2021. We are searching for a discovery in propulsion and energy, but the talks and discussions cover a wide range of topics. We try to make the meetings very exploratory and somewhat speculative to get to the edge of people’s ideas and make further progress through discovery and new collaborations.
Even when meeting online, the environment we desire to create is like an old-fashioned salon where people come and go and stay as they have time, and the discussions are real and varied. Previous years we were a MIT Independent Activity Period (IAP) session (2019 and 2020), but this year we were unofficial. We cherish all the connections and forward momentum that come from these meetings. Thank you to all who participated and we are always very interested in any further thoughts.
