A review is presented of recent research, development, testing and evaluation aerothermodynamic activities that have been conducted at the NASA Langley Research Center in the Langley Aerothermodynamics Laboratory. An overview of the test facilities, model development and fabrication capabilities, and instrumentation and measurement techniques employed in this work is provided. Contributions to hypersonic flight and planetary exploration programs are detailed, as are fundamental research and development activities. Wind tunnel investigations are described that supported flight programs for NASA and Commercial Crew external partners. Collaborations between NASA projects and academia are also highlighted in this overview of recent wind tunnel experiments.
