Publications from Aerospace

Knowledge is our capital at The Aerospace Corporation, and people are our greatest asset. How we accumulate, generate, and disseminate information to our partners, our sponsors and the general public is an important part of our role in ensuring the success of every space mission.

Learning and sharing information is critical to our business, and members of our technical staff produce a variety of techical reports for the Air Force and industry. Selected unclassified, technical reports are provided in their entirety in pdf format. These reports document our unique contributions to the nation's space programs. For copies of publicly available reports consult the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Web site. For Aerospace reports unavailable from DTIC, e-mail the Aerospace Library and Information Resources Center at library@aero.org.

The publishing arm of The Aerospace Institute, The Aerospace Press copublishes books with the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). (See our list of available publications, which can be ordered through the AIAA.) In addition the press publishes the company's award-winning publication, Crosslink, which highlights the achievements of Aerospace engineers and scientists and documents the company's long history developing space systems.

The Aerospace Corporation annual report is also available for download in pdf format, or you can request a copy by e-mail.

For students and educators, we also publish our popular GPS Primer and Space Primer, which provide a general overview of the Global Positioning System and the physics of launch, respectively.
