What is the Researcher News? The Researcher News is an official newsletter serving NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va. The print edition is published every other Friday and distributed to all Langley civil service employees, contractors and retirees, with limited distribution to NASA Headquarters, other NASA centers and, by special request, to other non-NASA individuals and organizations. Its circulation is approximately 8,100. The Researcher News Online contains all of the content published in the print edition and is accessible to everyone via the Internet. Because of the publication schedule, the Researcher News Online often will publish content before it appears in the print edition. Questions or comments about the content of the Researcher News should be addressed to Managing Editor Keith Henry. 2. How do I change my mailing address?

Langley retirees and off-site contractors should forward address changes to the Editor at researcher-news@larc.nasa.gov. 3. Who can submit content? The privilege of publishing in the Researcher News is restricted to Langley's employees, contractors and retirees. Articles must be offered without regard to race, color, religion, sex or national origin. All submitted materials are subject to editing. 4. How do I submit content?
