Aerospace Go

Explore the applications of Go in aerospace engineering through this GopherCon 2022 talk by Patricio Whittingslow. Discover how a small Argentinian startup leverages Go for rigid-body simulation of orbital vehicles, 3D visualization of orbital maneuvers, embedded systems, and rocket motor testing. Learn about the high-level experiences of applying Go to solve common aerospace industry problems, including orbital trajectory optimization using unsupervised machine learning and industrial control/automation for rocket engine testing. Gain insights into Go's impact on the company and its fit within the aerospace industry. The talk covers topics such as ideal gas laws, rewriting Python programs, the Zonda Sounding Rocket, embedded systems, flight software, WebAssembly, and machine learning applications in aerospace.
