Student, Looking for an engineer to exchange a few words with.

AI Thread Summary
William Moore aspires to become an aerospace engineer and is interested in engineering alternative fuel sources. He seeks clarification on which branch of engineering focuses on alternative fuels, distinguishing them from alternative energy sources. His goal is to invent a new fuel that can be used in aircraft and other vehicles. The discussion highlights the intersection of aerospace engineering and alternative fuel technology. Moore is encouraged to explore his interests further and consider relevant information sources.

Hello, my name is William Moore; I am aspiring to be an Aero-Nautical/Aerospace-Engineer when I have completed my educational career.
I would like to know, under what other branch of Engineering; is engineering alternative fuel sources?

Welcome to the PF.

Alternative energy sources are different from alternative "fuel" sources. Can you say more about what your interests are? What information sources have you read so far?
 
My interests are things in aerospace, and alternative 'Fuel' sources. yes very different subjects but i would eventually like to invent a way to put my new fuel into a plane and fly it on the alternative fuel that i had constructed.
i would also like to apply myself into other kinds of vehicles, and apply my alternative fuel sources to them as well.
 

Thread 'Never think never for an improbable event'

Pilot training is critical to safe flying. I watched the following video regarding the crash of TAM 402 (31 October 1996), which crashed into a Sao Paolo neighorbood about 25 seconds after takeoff. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TAM_Transportes_A%C3%A9reos_Regionais_Flight_402 The pilots were never trained to handle such an event (the airline had asked the manufacturer about training for this event), since it was considered too improbable (so rare) by the manufacturer. There was no...

Thread 'Space Stuff and Launch Info'

Due to the constant never ending supply of "cool stuff" happening in Aerospace these days I'm creating this thread to consolidate posts every time something new comes along. Please feel free to add random information if its relevant. So to start things off here is the SpaceX Dragon launch coming up shortly, I'll be following up afterwards to see how it all goes. :smile: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacex/
