Summary[edit]

Description NASA's large Airborne Science research aircraft, a modified DC-8 airliner, displayed new colors in a check flight over its home base, the NASA Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards AFB, California. NASA is using a DC-8 aircraft as a flying science laboratory. The platform aircraft collects data for many experiments in support of scientific projects serving the world scientific community. Included in this community are NASA, federal, state, academic and foreign investigators. Data gathered by the DC-8 at flight altitude and by remote sensing have been used for scientific studies in archeology, ecology, geography, hydrology, meteorology, oceanography, volcanology, atmospheric chemistry, soil science and biology.
