Twenty-first-century aeropropulsion and power research will enable new transport engine and aircraft systems including: (1) Emerging ultralow noise and emissions with the use of intelligent turbofans; (2) Future distributed vectored propulsion with 24-hour operations and greater community mobility; (3) Research in hybrid combustion and electric propulsion systems leading to silent aircraft with near-zero emissions; and (4) The culmination of these revolutions will deliver an all-electric- powered propulsion system with zero-impact emissions and noise and high-capacity, on-demand operation
