NASA’s first all electric X-plane, the X-57 Mod II, has reached Armstrong Flight Research Center facility in California. It will now undergo heavy testing. X-planes are the aircraft designed to test and evaluate new technologies. NASA will initially conduct ground tests on the Mod II to make it ready for the next phases which include taxi and finally flight tests which will be the first crewed X-plane in two decades.
