Lockheed Martin: Built From the Ground, to the Sky, and Then to the Stars. Introduction to Lockheed Martin A. We have all seen the military’s videos of them flaunting their billion dollar helicopters, their super-sonic jets, and their space-age weaponry, but where does it all come from? B. Let me introduce you to Lockheed Martin, the company that specializes in creating vehicles, robots, and machinery. C. I did some research about the company because technology is especially pertinent in the 21st century. What’s more, Lockheed Martin’s technology is slowly becoming more integrated into everyone’s lives, thus I took it upon myself to explain the technology that people may start seeing outside of military use within the next decade. D. Between …show more content…
Information about Lockheed Martin A. Lockheed Martin began its venture into the technology industry humbly, but eventually grew to a powerhouse of a company that started contracting with the U.S Military, which allowed Lockheed Martin to soar to unseen heights. A. Lockheed Martin is a prime example of the American dream, with two mechanic brothers building rudimentary aircraft in a garage. Moreover, it is said that they had a talent for improvement and sought a better future for all. b. With this knack for improvement and backing from the U.S. military, the brothers and their business had no trouble garnering the finances to grow. Subsequently, Lockheed Martin became the technological innovator that we know today (Our History, 2024). c. Moving on, Lockheed Martin’s technology didn’t stop in America, expanding to countries like Canada and Japan, as the brothers’ company began to establish worldwide structures and multiple levels of industry. B. Lockheed Martin is the pinnacle of power, being the biggest manufacturer of fighter aircraft throughout World War II, the company was and still is the backbone of militaries throughout the world (Answered, 2021). a. For example, their 5th generation F-35 Lightning II fighter jet boasts a top speed of 1227 mph, an integrated wearable pilot interface that automates most tasks, and a system of electronic devices that jam enemy communications from miles away (About Us, 2024). b. To be specific, that is only the tip of the iceberg of
Why do you wish to be employed at Lockheed Martin? I am interested in being employed at Lockheed Martin because of the unique opportunities and the educational experiences that suit my career goals. Lockheed Martin is one of the leading tech companies in the world; interning there will allow me to become more knowledgeable in the various topics that I am interested in, engineering and the politicization of technologies, in a way that I will not be able to by attending typical high school classes

Reaction Paper 4 As the Guest Lectures come to an end, I really enjoyed this portion of the career planning class, as I got to learn about so many careers in the STEM fields and how each of the speakers got into their respective position. Overall, the speakers today did a good job talking about their careers, but I felt like sometimes, I lost track of what they were talking about. The presentation that began with Dr. Cherie Yestrebsky started the class off really well, but then as it progressed
With my paper on aircraft engines, I decided to write on the Pratt and Whitney F-135 turbo jet engine. In this paper I am going to discuss the power capabilities of the engine. What it can and not do in reference to its performance. I am also going to talk about who makes the particular engine and what it has to do with the government. And finally, I am going to bring up which aircraft it is being used on and where the idea came from in the first place. The Pratt and Whitney aircraft company

Through the history of aviation the importance of airport security has steadily increased. Since the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001, many changes have taken place at airports to prevent such an attack from occurring again. The purpose of this paper is to: outline airport security procedures, discuss the different technologies involved with airport security, as well as examine the components of airport security. In addition I will also discuss the Transportation Security Administration’s role

Human space exploration had its beginning on October 4, 1957, when the Soviets launched Sputnik 1 into space. Sputnik was the first artificial satellite. The United States followed close behind, launching Explorer 1 into orbit in early 1958. The Soviet Union was also first to launch a man into space, when on April 12, 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first human to orbit the earth on Vostok 1. Again, the United States followed shortly after when Alan Shepard made a suborbital flight, becoming the

world power because of the economic and military power gained by these advances? What are the positive and negative factors that some of these advances may have had as well as some of the controversy that surrounds many of these advances? During my research, I found it amazing how far our country had come in 45 years. I was intrigued by the historical events that lead to the innovation and discoveries of the early 20th century. To think of how life was before these innovations is almost unfathomable

the science of fingerprint identification has managed to maintain its credibility and usefulness. Although, academic institutions have yet to recognize the field as an applied science and include it in the curricula, which would provide directed research and literary reference, in libraries. Without this academic recognition, progress in the field of fingerprint is destined to be sluggish. Description of fingerprint identification as a forensic science’ or an ~app1ied science’ in no way implies that
