SUMMARY:Bright Minds\, Bold Voices: Reimagining how we fly
DESCRIPTION:Bright Minds\, Bold Voices: Reimagining how we fly \nProject Sunrise is Qantas’ bold leap into the future of ultra-long-haul travel\, backed by evidence-based research by scientists at the Charles Perkins Centre\, University of Sydney. \nThis bold project has transformed fundamental discoveries about circadian biology into real-life impact – reimagining in-flight lighting\, movement\, nutrition and sleep to reduce jet lag and improve travellers’ wellbeing with scientifically measurable benefits. \nTheir research has informed the design of next-generation aircraft\, built with futuristic cabin features helping passengers arrive more rested\, alert\, and ready to go. \nIn conversation with ABC Canberra’s Lish Fejer\, we’ll hear from two leaders of the project: \n\nVanessa Hudson is Qantas Group CEO and Managing Director. She is leading the airline towards Project Sunrise take-off\, with the first flights scheduled for 2027.\nProfessor Stephen Simpson AC FAA FRS is leading the team of researchers from Charles Perkins Centre\, using real-world passenger data to enhance the in-flight experience and inform the next generation of specially designed ultra-long-range aircraft.\n\nThis event is for everyone including students\, professionals\, academics\, policymakers\, lifelong learners\, and those simply curious about how science is shaping our future.
