Researchers from the University of Michigan have developed 3D morphing wings they believe could help small aircraft safely navigate windy urban streets. The wing design could also help aircraft land ...

The coworking social club’s in-house team is expanding–and taking on projects outside of The Wing’s own spaces. Most built spaces in our world are designed for the average man. Corporate office ...

The Boeing 777X is set to revolutionize long-haul air travel when it eventually enters commercial service in 2027. The US manufacturer's latest version of its incredibly popular Boeing 777 family will ...

Airliners have looked largely the same for a long time now. The ongoing hunt for efficiency gains has seen the development of winglets, drag reducing films, and all manner of little aerodynamic tricks ...

American space agency NASA and aircraft maker Boeing have been researching longer and thinner wing designs, they are now ready to share the results.

NASA is developing a stiletto-like plane wing that's so long and thin that it needs a truss to hold it up. The longer, thinner, and lighter truss-braced wing, as it is called, is aimed at making ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Back in January, Boeing flew its fancy new widebody aircraft for the ...

Evolution has done a pretty good job of producing efficient wings in birds and insects. In particular, natural wings tend to be quite flexible and this allows animals to generate lift and thrust with ...

A team from MIT and NASA led by Neil Gershenfeld is developing a new type of "morphing" wing that rather than using conventional flaps, changes its shape. This new wing is made up of overlapping ...

The Wing is continuing to spread its wings. Yesterday, the women-only co-working space and social club opened the doors to its first outpost outside of Manhattan: a loft-like space in Brooklyn's Dumbo ...
