Testing new aerospace concepts in flight remains one of NASA’s most effective ways to advance knowledge and reduce risk. The Dale Reed Subscale Flight Research Laboratory at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, supports this mission by using small, autonomous, remotely piloted aircraft as cost-effective platforms to mature innovative ideas, accelerate learning, and

Nobody wants to get on an uncomfortable plane. NASA’s research could help the emerging industry of air taxis (small vertical takeoff and landing aircraft intended for short trips) understand the relationship between comfort and willingness to fly. That’s where NASA comes in, with data that can help identify how to plan air taxi trips that

Airflow around rockets as they travel from Earth into space can have a dramatic impact on a mission, which is why NASA used advanced simulations to provide the best possible launch conditions for the Artemis II test flight around the Moon. To better understand the Artemis Space Launch System (SLS) rocket’s flight environment, engineers turned to a NASA-developed tool called the Launch, Ascent, and Vehicle Aerodynamics
