Testing Tools for Flight
When new technologies for airplanes are developed, they need to be tested in wind tunnels to assess their effectiveness. Often, transonic testing is needed - testing that simulates speeds just below, just above, or at the speed of sound. NASA's Glenn Research Center in Cleveland is one of the NASA centers which offer this capability.
