Wind tunnel tests at Ames Research Center will be used to enhance the design and stability of NASA's Space Launch System.
A scale model of the Space Launch System (SLS) is tested in an 11-by-11-foot transonic wind tunnel at NASA’s Ames Research Center. The tests will be used to enhance the design and stability of the SLS — essential to America’s future in human spaceflight and scientific exploration of deep space.
