On the cover
Many decisions are now guided by computational simulations, from designing new spacecraft to predicting the
spread of a pandemic. This " predictive science " is being
studied by researchers at The University of Texas at
Austin with the mission to develop the next generation
of exascale predictive simulation capabilities. Here, predictive science is used to assess whether a space capsule
will survive high temperatures during reentry into the
atmosphere. Learn more about research at UT Austin in
the Facility Focus on page 51.
