The first “A” in NASA stands for aeronautics, and NASA’s Glenn Research Center helped bring that message to thousands of people at major airshows in Wisconsin and Ohio this summer.
In July, NASA Glenn subject matter experts and outreach professionals landed in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to participate in EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2024. Thousands of aircraft arrived at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh and other airports in east-central Wisconsin to attend the event.
Under the large NASA tent, staff shared information on both agencywide and center-specific projects, missions, and technology. NASA Glenn employees also assisted NASA Administrator Bill Nelson through tours and presentations.
Over Labor Day weekend, NASA Glenn’s experts traveled down the road to the Cleveland National Air Show at Burke Lakefront Airport. A main attraction, NASA Glenn’s newest aircraft — the Pilatus PC-12 — garnered enthusiasm from visitors who met NASA’s aircrew and learned about how this aircraft helps test innovative communications technology.
Inside the NASA tent, guests experienced virtual reality simulators, watched wind tunnel demonstrations, and learned about Quesst, NASA’s mission to make quiet, faster-than-sound air travel a reality.
