1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000 Hi, I'm RJ, with more aeronautics news you can use. 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000 How can a pilot see the ground through clouds? 3 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,000 You can't see through fog. 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:17,000 Researchers at NASA Langley's Aviation Safety and Security Program are developing a new vision system. 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000 It will help pilots land, even when they can't see the runway. 6 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,000 How does that work? 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:27,000 Sensors, electronic world maps, and satellite signals create a kind of virtual reality of what's outside, 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000 no matter what the weather or time of day. 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,000 Computers take the information and produce a movie that is shown on a display in the cockpit. 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,000 If it's too dark or foggy for the pilot to see out the window, a screen will offer a clear day view. 11 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:45,000 It looks good. I can see the two towers coming up. I have them in my field of view, too. 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,000 And the resolution is fabulous. 13 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,000 Pilots testing the system say it's awesome and cool. 14 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000 To learn more, visit our website. 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:57,000 Until next time, I'm RJ with cool aeronautics news you can use.
