Last night, UA AIAA had the pleasure of hosting Greg Karahalis, the first speaker of the Fall 2026 Semester. A Technical Advisor for C2BMC Warfighter Integration, Mr. Karahalis spoke to our members about command and control, mission architecture, engineering trade-offs, and what it means to be an aerospace engineer. Mr. Karahalis also led our members in a deep dive into Sky Elements' inspiring light display over NYC Harbor, memorializing the victims of 9/11. Members discussed the challenges of pulling off an operation of this magnitude, factoring in weather constraints, regulatory factors, technical procedures, and more. We are so grateful that Mr. Karahalis joined us, and we are looking forward to all the other amazing speakers in store for this semester! #AIAA #rolltide by @ua_aiaa
