NASA conducts cutting-edge, fundamental research in traditional and
emerging disciplines to help transform the nation's air transportation
system, and to support future air and space vehicles.
Our goals are to improve airspace capacity and mobility, improve
aviation safety, and improve aircraft performance while reducing noise,
emissions and fuel burn.
Our world-class capability is built on a tradition of expertise in
aeronautical engineering and its core research areas, including
aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, materials and structures, propulsion,
dynamics and control, sensor and actuator technologies, advanced
computational and mathematical techniques, and experimental measurement
techniques.
