Kudos to this group of passionate Boston University College of Engineering students on their #project where bicycles collect air quality data through different #Boston neighborhoods, creating a mobile network of air quality monitors used for scientific research. #engineeringabettertomorrow #environmentalengineering #terriers https://lnkd.in/gXQ5HcuR

On the 80th Anniversary of D-Day, we highlight Jack Darbyshire and Hugh Iorys Hughes who were part of a hidden army who worked for years behind the scenes and their weapons were hashtag #science and #engineering. Darbyshire developed a way to model wave patterns using iron buoys in the sea. He discovered they were able to predict wave patterns linked to weather events happening hundreds of miles away. Hughes submitted his designs for floating piers that would become harbors and stored thousands of tons of supplies, vehicles and men every day. As pictured, they still stand on the beaches of Normandy today. Their hashtag #accomplishments are testaments to their brilliance as #engineers. #normandy #ww2

Kudos to Boston University scientists who were part of the #global team of over 300 experts collaborating on the new image of the Milky Way. The Event Horizon Telescope is a network of individual #telescopes and #satellitesdishes stretching across the world creating an “Earth-sized interferometer.” #aeronauticalengineering #NASA #engineeringabettertomorrow

Happy Earth Day and thank you to the engineers that promote sustainability and environmental stewardship. #environmentalengineering #engineeringabettertomorrow

Lockheed Martin received the $17 billion contract to develop #homeland missile defense system by the Missile Defense Agency. Their #engineers will be #creating the next generation of interceptors to protect the U.S. against ballistic missile attacks. #military #manufacturingengineering #defense https://lnkd.in/egd3qKgq

Kudos to the American Society of Civil Engineers for engineering the "future city," which is a ocean-based floating city. A #community which can change with its #environment. #engineeringthefuture https://lnkd.in/gXgsfWnr

A tremor is being felt in the #automotiveindustry as Dodge Auto #engineers the world’s first electric muscle car. #ev #automotiveengineering #cleanenergyfuture #fastandfurious https://lnkd.in/dGBM2HMv

Engineers not only push the boundaries of science, they solve technical problems that allow for construction, manufacturing, medicine, etc.. They lead #innovation which shapes society and the future. #nationalengineersweek2024 #makinganimpact #engineeringexcellence

60 years ago, Operation Match was a social experiment created by Harvard University students. But, when Cupid failed, they turned to #computerengineering students for help and this couple found #foreverlove for just a $3 fee! #happyvalentinesday #engineeringsolutions https://lnkd.in/euYRBQJC

The "Green Monster" lays within the remnants of Cassiopeia A supernova. This image is the result of combining observations from the Chandra, Webb, Hubble, and Spitzer Space Telescopes. #spacetechnology #aeronauticalengineering #telescope NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration
