AMA has been in the business of aerospace engineering for more than forty years. We understand what it takes to bring ideas from concept to flight. Our expertise in engineering is combined with advanced data visualization and fully integrated access to the software systems needed for all phases of design and development. We provide reliable, complete design, operations and mission analyses.
NASA's Vision for Space Exploration
AMA has been an integral part of, and major contributor to, NASA LaRC lunar exploration studies for the Vision for Space Exploration since 2004. We have participated and led high priority and short turn-around trade space analyses and vehicle conceptual designs/layouts. As a result of this work, AMA personnel have received multiple awards.
