NEAT Tests Megawatt-Scale Electric Aircraft Power Systems
NEAT tests megawatt-scale electric aircraft power systems. NEAT also includes a vacuum chamber, where this photo perspective was taken from, which can currently simulate altitudes of up to 40,000 feet to test high-voltage power electronics, electric motors, and controls. Within the year, NASA plans to increase the altitude capability to over 50,000 feet.
