NASA Lan­g­ley – 100 Years: Some­thing hap­pened 100 years ago that changed for­ev­er the way we fly, the way we explore space and how we study our home plan­et. That some­thing was the estab­lish­ment of what is now NASA’s Lan­g­ley Research Cen­ter in Hamp­ton, Vir­ginia, which com­mem­o­rates its 100th anniver­sary on July 17, 2017.
Astro­naut Neil Arm­strong, the first human to step foot on the moon and who learned how to do so by train­ing at Lan­g­ley said, “If a com­pe­ti­tion were held to deter­mine the orga­ni­za­tion that had accom­plished the largest num­ber of advance­ments to aero­nau­tic and aero­space progress, my nom­i­na­tion would be this place.”
This 45-minute doc­u­men­tary looks back across the 100 years, updates us on work being done at Lan­g­ley today, and takes a peek into the future.
