The first \u201ca\u201d in \u201cNASA\u201d stands for \u201caeronautics\u201d \u2013 the study of the science of flight. Thanks to advancements in aeronautics developed by NASA, today\u2019s aviation industry is better equipped than ever to safely and efficiently transport all those passengers to their destinations. In fact, every U.S. aircraft flying today and every U.S. air traffic control tower uses NASA-developed technology in some way.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Streamlined aircraft bodies, quieter jet engines, techniques for preventing icing, drag-reducing winglets, lightweight composite structures, software tools to improve the flow of tens of thousands of aircraft through the sky, and so much more are an everyday part of flying thanks to NASA research that traces its origins back to the earliest days of aviation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Today, a new global aviation system is emerging. NASA\u2019s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate is working to transform aviation into an efficient, safe economic engine at all altitudes.<\/p>\n

Our nation\u2019s investments in NASA\u2019s cutting-edge aeronautics research support U.S. global leadership in a number of rapidly advancing areas:<\/p>\n
