Public Law 116–263
116th Congress
An Act
To redesignate the NASA John H. Glenn Research Center at Plum Brook Station,
Ohio, as the NASA John H. Glenn Research Center at the Neil A. Armstrong
Test Facility.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of
the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Neil A. Armstrong Test Facility
Act’’.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds as follows:
(1) Neil A. Armstrong, through his own definition, was
first and foremost as a test pilot.
(2) A native of Wapakoneta, Ohio, Armstrong began his
inspiring career in space exploration in Cleveland, Ohio, at
what is now the NASA John H. Glenn Research Center.
(3) Becoming the first human to land a spacecraft, and
then set foot upon, the moon, represents the greatest dream
of any test pilot.
(4) Therefore, it is fitting that the premier aeronautics
and space test station in Ohio should be renamed in his honor.
