Summary

Description It all started with a mission to explore flight. From our establishment in 1939 as the second U.S. national aeronautical research lab – that built the most massive and capable aerodynamics testing facilities in existence – Ames Research Center has grown deep roots of intersecting expertise. How did it all start? Learn more about our origins in the 1930s in this video produced in 2009. Join us from April through December 2019 as we celebrate 80 years of incredible history of what is now NASA's Ames Research Center in California's Silicon Valley.
