Please describe the publication's mission and readership:
Aerospace America is read by engineering students, professionals and engineers who have joined the ranks of business executives and government leaders. The magazine enriches the professional lives of AIAA members by publishing visually compelling and thought-provoking feature articles and commentaries about the technologies and issues most relevant to them. The magazine:
• Places the achievements of individuals, organizations and the community in context.
• Covers developments in the U.S. and abroad while delivering a depth of understanding not available in other media.
• Links multiple robust sources of information that can facilitate knowledge creation by readers [bullet should align with others.]
• Contributes to the broader societal and policy discussions about aerospace-related topics through authoritative coverage and groundbreaking opinion writing.
• Provides a convenient, ubiquitous, multi-format communications link for AIAA members to learn about accomplishments in their fields and share ideas.
Please describe the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:
Aerospace America and AIAA began by working with our partners to conduct an in-depth survey of AIAA members as well as potential members. We gathered their views about the existing magazine format and its coverage; we sought to understand the kinds of coverage they viewed as most relevant to their needs for the future; we learned about their print-edition and online reading habits and preferences. We directed our coverage to meet those needs and worked closely with our online and print design contractors to craft a modern, visually focused and highly engaging design for print and online.
