Title : X-24A Mounted in Full-scale Wind Tunnel with Simulated Ablative Coating
Caption :
This photo shows a technician dwarfed beside the X-24A in a full-scale wind tunnel. The X-24A is white in this photo because it is covered with a simulated ablative coating, which was being investigated as a possible method of protecting vehicles from the heat of high-speed flight.
