AREES 2012: Learning About NASA Earth Science Research

Teachers from around the country recently gathered at NASA's Dryden Aircraft Operations Facility and the AERO Institute in Palmdale, Calif., to participate in NASA's Airborne Research Experiences for Educators and Students (AREES) workshops. For two weeks, the educators focused on NASA's Earth science and flight research missions, how engineers integrate specialized science instruments into aircraft for monitoring terrestrial changes and participated in a simulated NASA ER-2 Earth science mission.
