At NASA Langley, we are dreamers, stargazers, and explorers. We aspire to know more, dig deeper, climb higher and along the way we keep asking questions. We dare to ask, “what if?” A simple start to endless possibilities and opportunities. Explore all that NASA Langley Research

On this day a legend was born. 💫. Today, we remember the legacy of NASA's super computer, Katherine G. Johnson. Katherine laid the groundwork for humanity's first flight to the moon by calculating the orbital equations that would control the trajectory in John Glenn's

Aging like fine wine! 🎉. From wind tunnels to space missions, NASA Langley has been shaping the future of aerospace and innovation for 108 years. Here's to the legacy—and what's next! . Happy Birthday to us 🎊🚀!!

At Constellation, we're empowering enterprises with advanced data integration for enhanced resilience, security, and auditability. Digital Evidence Builder Program: .A simple way for developers to secure data integrity using trusted fingerprinting technology via a managed API

Testing the future of flight ✈️. An X-59 model recently completed testing in a Japanese wind tunnel. Data from this test will help researchers understand the noise level that will be created by the shock waves the X-59 produces at supersonic speeds:

Could we see large, solar panel farms on the Moon 🌕? . Maybe someday in the future, but right now we're looking at a lunar outpost and that's where Vertical Solar Array Technology, or VSAT comes into play. Watch the full video:

NASA's TEMPO has completed its initial prime mission, and it has now been extended through at least September 2026. The TEMPO mission is NASA’s first satellite to measure air quality over North America hourly every day during daylight hours:

From launching ideas to reaching for the stars, we celebrate the freedom to dream big! . Happy Fourth of July from NASA Langley 🚀 🇺🇸

Martian your calendars! Mars will shine bright throughout July🔭 . You'll find it sinking lower in the sky each day. July is also the 60th anniversary of the first successful flyby of Mars by NASA's Mariner 4 spacecraft in 1965.

NASA Langley is where it all starts: a home for innovation and wonder, our workforce is building, refining and researching the technological innovations driving our country closer to the stars. Learn more about how our wonder is changing the world today:

A one-of-a-kind NASA instrument, called Arcstone, successfully launched to improve the quality of data from Earth-viewing sensors in orbit. The mission will measure sunlight reflected from the Moon— also called lunar spectral reflectance:
