The Italian aerospace research center CIRA is described. Activities of computational, experimental aerodynamic, and technological laboratories are detailed. The space scenario and studies in hypersonics and aerothermodynamics are outlined. The development of a facility capable of testing and qualifying the thermal protection system of Hermes, called the plasma wind tunnel, is described. Other involvements of CIRA are included.
