Engineers are actively subjecting a meticulous 1.2% scale model of the Super Heavy Version 3 rocket to rigorous transonic and supersonic wind tunnel evaluations. These comprehensive assessments are designed to map out and thoroughly understand the extreme aerodynamic stresses the heavy-lift vehicle will encounter as it plummets back through the atmosphere during atmospheric re-entry. The […]

As space agencies prepare for long-term crewed missions to the Moon and Mars, engineers are addressing the critical challenge of fire safety in elevated oxygen environments. Future missions plan to utilize higher oxygen concentrations to reduce the prebreathe time required for astronauts before conducting extravehicular activities. However, this enriched atmosphere significantly increases flammability risks, necessitating […]

NASA officially inaugurated its newest wind tunnel, the Flight Dynamics Research Facility, during a ribbon-cutting ceremony held on July 31, 2026, at the Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. This milestone marks the first time in over 40 years that the agency has commissioned a major new wind tunnel, signaling a significant modernization of its […]

At the Johnson Space Center, a new generation of talent is proving that the future of space exploration requires more than just rocket scientists. Interns from diverse academic backgrounds are integrating their unique skill sets—ranging from generative artificial intelligence and multimedia design to professional photography—into the core operations of high-stakes missions. By working directly alongside […]
