NASA wants to hire a very specialized company to see if a "classified" Air Force 737 could be used as a testbed for low-gravity work. The post Is This Secretive Air Force 737 About To Become NASA’s Next ‘Vomit Comet’? appeared first on The War Zone .
NASA is exploring new options for low-gravity research and testbeds, with the Air Force potentially providing a suitable, if secretive, platform.
This indicates continued investment in space-related research and development, potentially accelerating critical testing for future space missions and technologies.
NASA might gain a new, more advanced, or more readily available platform for microgravity testing, potentially enhancing its research capabilities.
