That first “A” in NASA stands for aeronautics—the science of travel through the air. It’s as much about you flying on airplanes and arriving safely at your destination as it is about astronauts flying in space. Wind tunnels, flight testing, and computer simulations are among our many tools for research. In honor of the #NASA60th anniversary, learn more about how today’s entire aviation industry relies on technology rooted in our NASA Aeronautics research: https://go.nasa.gov/2DFm3Jg | NASA - Nat
