General Applied Science Laboratory

General Applied Science Laboratory (GASL) is an American aerospace company, known as a pioneer of hypersonic propulsion.

[1] General Applied Science Laboratory was founded in 1956 by Antonio Ferri[1] and became a developer and testing house for advanced propulsion systems.

[2][3] Its expertise in hypersonic harsh environments has allowed it to research and test materials and methods for extreme high temperatures as well as combustion systems relevant to current power generation and clean energy.

Part of the electronics operation was the manufacture of Janus doppler navigation devices for docking large ships.

[8] Antonio Ferri became the Vincent Astor Professor of Aerospace Sciences at New York University.
