Joby Aviation just pulled off a jaw-dropping feat: a 3,000-mile autonomous flight across the country—no human pilot onboard. The tech handled every phase, from takeoff to landing, while being monitored remotely. This isn’t just a milestone for their autonomy system—it’s a blueprint for future uses: delivering medical supplies, aiding disaster relief, and powering military logistics. With a recent acquisition of Resonant Sciences and ongoing work with the Department of Defense, Joby is positioning itself at the forefront of next-gen aviation. Their first commercial product? A regional aircraft with this autonomy tech—perfect for defense or cargo—and they’re already making stops in Louisville and Salt Lake City as part of the journey. The future of flight? Less hands-on, more smart.
