NASA Delivers on Making Gate to Gate Flights More Efficient
In this story from March 2022, a summary of NASA's three-part Airspace Technology Demonstration (ATD) project is presented. It details how a team of NASA's aeronautical innovators working with government and industry partners spent fives years developing and demonstrating new tools to help you fly from here to there in the most time-efficient, fuel-saving, and cost-effective manner possible.
