NASA's Aeronautics Test Program (ATP) was created to preserve and
promote the testing capabilities of one of the largest, most versatile
and comprehensive set of research facilities in the United States.
Four NASA centers—Ames Research Center in Mountain View, CA; Dryden
Flight Research Center in Edwards, CA; Glenn Research Center in
Cleveland, OH; and Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA—operate ATP
facilities that provide an extensive array of services in their
respective areas of expertise.
ATP offers government agencies, corporations and institutions the total
package— unmatched basic and applied research and experimental
opportunities that reflect four generations of accumulated aerospace
skill and experience. ATP is built upon a nationwide team of highly
trained and skilled staff whose backgrounds and education encompass
every aspect of aerospace testing and engineering.
Looking to the future, ATP continues to develop and implement a facility
investment and divestment plan to fully support the current and
long-term missions of NASA, the Department of Defense and American
industry.
