This year, the agency will fill the NASA Exhibit Pavilion in Aviation Gateway Park with displays and hands-on activities highlighting NASA's progress of future aircraft, the International Space Station, Earth science, the solar system, and NASA's plan for sending astronauts into deep space, including Mars.
Visitors to the pavilion also will be able to touch an actual moon rock brought back during NASA's Apollo missions. NASA also will have more than 20 subject matter experts presenting at the various AirVenture venues and on the flightline. Static displays of a NASA T-38 Talon aircraft, a NASA SR22 research aircraft and a former National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) P-63 aircraft.

Moderated by NASA Acting Chief Technologist, Douglas Terrier, the panel features senior leaders from all four of NASA's aeronautical research centers talking about their latest work on technologies involved with experimental, or "X"-planes (low boom supersonic and ultra-efficient subsonic) and testing traffic management systems for drones, followed by audience Q&As.
