Abstract
This paper summarizes some of the main conclusions and highlights of the Emerging Concepts Working Group (EC Group) of the Snowmass 1999 Fusion Summer Study. The EC Group considered technical challenges and opportunities related to emerging concept issues.

George Cayley produced a sketch and model glider in 1804, which is the first known example of a fixed-wing, fuselage, dual-plane tail airplane. The Wright Brothers, of course, flew in 1903. A fascinating account of the development of flight from the viewpoint of aerodynamics is contained in: John D. Anderson, Jr, A History of Aerodynamics. (Cambridge University Press, Cambridge UK) (1997).
