Bill Nelson: “A lot of our technological dominance today is a result of investments in research and technology.”

Today we find ourselves in yet another space race, this time with China.

What we are going to do is a multi-year test, taking it to different locations all over the United States, and see if the muffled roar is acceptable to the people on the ground.

We are on the same page, and NASA owns and operates that local public water system, so we have every reason to continue this investigation.
