Cities are complicated places to fly, presenting challenges – both known and unpredictable – for current and future air vehicles. But creating new air mobility solutions to move people and cargo will require addressing those challenges. And that’s where NASA’s Data & Reasoning Fabric project can help.

Carol Carroll didn’t start out with the hopes and dreams of becoming an engineer. As a child, the deputy center director of NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley didn’t know what engineering was, let alone that the career field was an option for her. For “Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day,” we share her inspiring story.

Scientists recently named a mesa-like lunar mountain that towers above the landscape carved by craters near the Moon’s South Pole. This unique feature will now be referred to as “Mons Mouton,” after NASA mathematician and computer programmer Melba Roy Mouton

Sound never looked so good! Using a special handheld camera, researchers at NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, recently captured images of the shockwaves coming off F-15B research aircraft.
