The world is changing rapidly. And with it, so are the potential futures for humanity. Many of these potential futures pose hidden threats, while others offer new opportunities for aviation and the broader aerospace community. To mitigate these risks and capitalize on opportunities, organizations must work to deeply understand these potential future scenarios and uncover any underlying drivers. Organizations will be more equipped and informed when making strategic investment decisions by better understanding these threats, opportunities, and drivers. The future scenarios and their threats and opportunities described in this paper were identified through a series of extensive brainstorming workshops, collectively titled Mapping for Aviation Driven by Needs Emergence and Satiating Society (MADNESS). These workshops engaged NASA civil servants and contractors with diverse backgrounds through a facilitated process of future scenario development and critique. The participants were led through exercises focused on a time horizon spanning from 2022 to 2072 and on problems that aviation might solve and/or create during this period. From the broad results, two patterns of critical uncertainty emerged: “availability” (scarcity vs. abundance) and “transparency” (openness vs. security and privacy). The successful iteration and ideation across the MADNESS workshops also suggest a repeatable mechanism for strategic risk exploration across a variety of NASA and industry stakeholders. |
