I study how things work.
Then explore what
we can do with them.
Aerospace Engineering student

From physical systems
to ideas on paper.
Different disciplines.
The same curiosity.
Flight. Physics. AI.
And the space between.
I’m Salim Youssef Najim. I study Aerospace Engineering, lead student projects, and write about the systems shaping the world around us.

Featured book / 2026
Built from
Physics.
How Humanity Shapes Matter, Harnesses Energy, and Engineers the Future
From the forces we feel to the systems we build. A journey through the physics behind materials, energy, technology and spaceflight.
03 / Behind the work
A curious mind.
A practical streak.
Studying engineering gives me a way to ask better questions. Leading LUMOS gave me a way to work through them with a team. Writing gives me room to explain what I’m learning.
