💕💕 Thanks for Watching my video 💕💕

In December 2021, 53 students from various universities across the United States majoring in sciences, mathematics, and engineering were selected to fly on NASA Armstrong’s DC-8 Airborne Science Laboratory, as part of the NASA Ames’ Student Airborne Research Program (SARP).

The DC-8 flew over California’s Inland Empire, Imperial Valley and San Joaquin Valley to conduct research on air pollution with low-level flights beginning on Dec. 6, 2021. Participants flying on board were assisting scientists in the operation of instruments that measure air pollution and greenhouse gases to better understand their sources and how they react in the atmosphere.

SARP is managed by NASA's Ames Research Center in California's Silicon Valley through the National Suborbital Research Center at the Bay Area Environmental Research Institute with funding and support from NASA’s Earth Science Division. NASA’s DC-8 is managed and maintained by NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center.
