The 50th annual Dayton-Cincinnati Aerospace Sciences Symposium (DCASS) was held on 4 March, at the Sinclair Ponitz Conference Center in Dayton, OH. DCASS showcases cutting-edge scientific and engineering research and innovations in a one-day event through 200 technical presentations across multiple aspects of aerospace science and technology. This year’s keynote speaker, introduced by AIAA CEO Clay Mowry, was Kevin Bowcutt, Senior Technical Fellow and Chief Scientist of Hypersonics at The Boeing Company. Bowcutt, the 2025 winner of the prestigious AIAA Durand Lectureship, spoke about “The Evolution of Hypersonic Flight Over Seven Decades and the Technical Breakthroughs That Got Us Here.” Attendees also were able to participate in the associated Art-in-Science competition by submitting videos and images that combine technical content and aesthetic appeal.
Thank you to our organizers and attendees for 50 successful years!
