SUMMARY
Aeronautical engineering focuses on the design and development of aircraft within the Earth's atmosphere, while aerospace engineering encompasses both aeronautical and astronautical engineering, addressing the design of vehicles for both atmospheric and space environments. The term "aerospace" reflects modern advancements in technology, particularly in high-speed flow dynamics, which are integral to contemporary engineering curricula. The transition from "aeronautical" to "aerospace" signifies an evolution in the field to include broader applications beyond just aircraft.
