8X6 FOOT WIND TUNNEL FOR LEWIS NEWS NEWSLETTER STORY ABOUT THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY

Construction crews place steel bollards at the Tucson

Tennessee Valley Authority. Construction of Douglas Dam. Making forms of the generating plant at TVA's new Douglas Dam on the French Broad River. This dam will be 161 feet high and 1,682 feet long, with a 31,600 acre reservoir area extending forty-three miles upstream. With a useful storage capacity of approximately 1,330,00 acre feet, this reservoir will make possible the addition of nearly 100,000 kilowatts of continuous power to the TVA system in dry years and almost 170,000 kilowatts in the average year

A test section of the fiberglass hull of a surface effect ship (SES) measuring 46 feet long by 39 feet wide and weighing 103 tons is lowered into the water for shock testing

VENT 5-2 WITH BOUNDARY LAYER TRIP MODEL IN THE 8X6 FOOT WIND TUNNEL

Spaceward Bound event in the Mojave Deser , CA (an outreach exercise) with Dr Chris McKay and Ames Education department personnel Brian Day, Barbara Bazar and a accompaning (learning for the the classroom) team of teachers will be studying side-by-side with NASA scientists who search for life in extreme environments, closely approximating what they expect to find on other planets. Why the Mojave -- an inhospitable, sun-drenched spot in the California Desert? This natural setting presents scientists with opportunities to study environments that are analogous to what explorers will find on the Moon and Mars. Teachers and scientists will perform scientific fieldwork in lunar geology, Mars astrobiology, Mars geology, and issues of temperature and solar inundation and radiation. for additional information and Outreach projects see http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/ ARC-2007-ACD07-0056-085
