Gretchen Morales-Valle Helps Make Aviation Safer: The First “A” in NASA

Growing up in tropical Puerto Rico, Gretchen Morales-Valle never imagined that ice could build up on aircraft. After an interview at NASA, she learned about Glenn’s Icing Research Tunnel and the center’s work to simulate the icy atmospheric conditions that planes can encounter in flight. Today, she works as an electrical and test engineer in this facility and is proud to do impactful work that helps keep people safe when they fly.
