MIT AeroAstro Creates
First Plane that Runs
without Fossil Fuels
Art Samberg
Introduction
• An accomplished financial executive with 30 years of experience atWall Street firms, Arthur
“Art” J. Samberg now serves with his family-owned company, Hawkes Financial, LLC. Before
building a successful career in the investment industry, Art Samberg studied aerospace
engineering in the Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology (MIT) AeroAstro program.
Engineers with MIT’s AeroAstro program recently revealed that they have built and
successfully flown the first-ever plane that does not use fossil fuels. Engineered with no
moving parts, the plane is powered by “ionic wind,” a silent flow of ions that generates
enough thrust to sustain flight.
Steven Barrett, MIT associate professor of aeronautics and astronautics, said that this
advance in aerospace engineering creates new possibilities for modern aircraft, such as
quieter flight and fewer harmful carbon emissions. In the future, the ion wind propulsion
technology could be combined with conventional combustion systems to create hybrid
aircraft that rely less on fossil fuels.
