NASA's Ames Research Center dedicated the $2.3 million, 21,336-square-foot Fluid Mechanics Laboratory, a new research facility designed to stimulate basic knowledge of aerodynamic flows. The Laboratory could support multiple, simultaneous small-scale wind tunnel research we having full access to supercomputer resources. The laboratory would concentrate on vortex flows, a major factor in maneuverability and reduced drag by aerodynamic means, for applications ranging from developing fuel-efficient aircraft to low-speed research on the National Aero-Space Plane.
