About This Innovation
* Jackson analyzed data from wind tunnel experiments and real-world aircraft flight experiments at the Subsonic-Transonic Aerodynamics Division at Langley. * Her goal was to understand air flow, including thrust and drag forces, in order to improve United States planes. * Jackson worked on Project Mercury during the Space Race, also focusing on the behavior of the boundary layer of air around airplanes.
