The Resilient Autonomy Project Flies the Alta 8

The Alta 8 remotely piloted aircraft hovers above Rosamond North Lakebed in March 2021 at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California. The Resilient Autonomy project used these flights to collect data with the Nav Module hardware and software developed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.
