The first “A” in NASA stands for aeronautics, and NASA’s Glenn Research Center helped bring that message to thousands of people at major airshows in Wisconsin and Ohio this summer. 

In July, NASA Glenn subject matter experts and outreach professionals landed in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, to participate in EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2024. Thousands of aircraft arrived at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh and other airports in east-central Wisconsin to attend the event.

Under the large NASA tent, staff shared information on both agencywide and center-specific projects, missions, and technology. NASA Glenn employees also assisted NASA Administrator Bill Nelson through tours and presentations.
