The NASA Wallops Flight Facility’s C-130H Hercules dwarfs NASA Langley Research Center’s Cirrus SR22 in the NASA Langley hangar in Hampton, Virginia.

The C-130H is in Hampton after finishing up a recent North Atlantic Aerosols and Marine Ecosystems airborne science study on the relationship between the ocean and the atmosphere. The SR22 is used by aeronautics researchers to test unmanned aircraft systems and other aviation technologies. Image credit: NASA/David C. Bowman
