Description:

This book covers a survey of NASA's work in aircraft propulsion from its origins as the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) to the early 21st century, starting around year 1915. It covers activities and science discoveries through NASA's aeronautical centers -- Langley Research Center in Virginia, Ames Research Center and Armstrong Flight Research Center in California, and Glenn Research Center at Lewis Field in Ohio. Advances within these facilities also became breakthroughs in aerospace technologies. Each chapter of this historical reference covers different scientific breakthroughs, such as emerging turbojet revolutions, military high speed and commercial supersonic flights, Aircraft Energy Efficiency Program, turboprop technology, gas turbines, wind tunnels, noise efficiency, flight research programs, emissions, and so much more. You will find a rich number of illustrations of planes from earlier times to futuristic, such as photos of Falcon planes within this comprehensive resource.
