    ORIGINAL NASA ARMSTRONG FLIGHT RESEARCH CENTER DRYDEN USAF SPACE PATCH
    ARMSTRONG FLIGHT RESEARCH CENTER
    DRYDEN AERONAUTICAL TEST RANGE
    DEDICATED MAY 13 2014
    President Barack Obama has signed
    HR 667
    , the congressional resolution that redesignates NASA's
    Hugh L. Dryden Flight Research Center
    as the Neil A. Armstrong Flight Research Center, into law. The resolution also names Dryden's
    Western Aeronautical Test Range
    as the Hugh L. Dryden Aeronautical Test Range.
    Hugh Dryden
    and
    Neil Armstrong
    are aerospace pioneers whose contributions are historic to NASA and the nation as a whole. NASA is developing a timeline to implement the redesignation of the center, the test range, and the Dryden Aircraft Operations Facility located in Palmdale, Calif.
    Armstrong, who died in 2012, became the first human to set foot on another world during his historic
    Apollo 11
    moonwalk on July 20, 1969. Armstrong's words "That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind," spoken as he stepped onto the lunar surface, instantly became a part of history.
    Armstrong joined the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), NASA's predecessor, in 1955. He served as an aeronautical research scientist and then as a pilot at the High-Speed Flight Station (later to become Dryden), before becoming an astronaut in 1962. Armstrong racked up over 2,450 flying hours, serving as a project pilot on several test planes, including the
    X-15 rocket plane
    .
