Due to its space adventures, Nasa is involved in some pretty hi-tech engineering designing kit for rockets, satellites and space stations but it also works with other companies on similar design breakthroughs. Two of the many areas it works in are making electric planes a more common reality and building supersonic aircraft to make journeys faster.
