What will the future be like?
Thinking about the future can spark the imagination of kids quite a lot.
What will our planet look like in a hundred or even a thousand years? Will the inventions of today have changed the future? What about space flight? Will we live on Mars?
Here kids will learn about various scientific projects that aim to shape the future.
- Tomorrow starts today: The future we can imagine today can only become real if we start putting our ideas into action now! This video series is about the future of cities, factories, space and aviation.
- Flightpath to Hydrogen: What is the smallest, lightest molecule in the universe? It’s hydrogen and there's a lot of it. In oceans, in rivers, and even in your kitchen sink! But what does it have to do with aerospace and fuel?
- Flying to a sustainable future: introducing kids to a proven alternative fuel - named Sustainable Aviation Fuel - which can reduce lifecycle CO2 emissions compared to conventional fuel.

Future of the skies - Introduction
Flightpath to Hydrogen
How can airplanes use hydrogen as fuel?
From rockets to flying balloons, hydrogen has already been used to reach the sky and beyond. Tomorrow, it could be used to power airplanes! But how? Modifying engines and using special battery-like fuel cells are all options. Where would you go in a hydrogen airplane?
Flying to a sustainable future
What is Sustainable Aviation Fuel?
Today’s jet fuel impacts the environment. A proven alternative fuel - named Sustainable Aviation Fuel - can reduce lifecycle CO2 emissions compared to conventional fuel. SAF is one of the aerospace industry’s best decarbonisation solutions which can help for the betterment of our planet. So what is sustainable aviation fuel?
