NASA to Host Panels, Forums, and More at Oshkosh 2024
Each summer, aviation enthusiasts and experts from around the planet ? including NASA's aeronautical innovators ? descend into a regional airport near Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to attend the Experimental Aviation Association's AirVenture Oshkosh.
The weeklong airshow and fly-in, where droves of pilots arrive in their own aircraft, draws hundreds of thousands of aviation enthusiasts to enjoy aerial demonstrations, static aircraft displays, aviation-related forums, and hands-on activities for people of all ages and all education levels.
NASA will appear at Oshkosh with a full slate of interactive exhibits, informative activities, and fascinating people to meet. This year's event, held July 22-28, is chock-full of things to do and see.
If you're attending Oshkosh this year, here's a brief summary of what you can expect inside the NASA Pavilion and on the forum stages:
And if you're looking for certain activities, NASA guides will be available onsite to help you find the ones best suited to you and your group.
In addition to the NASA Pavilion and forum talks, there are also several NASA-focused panels that are a can't miss.
