    Kirt Stallings, NASA ER-2 pilot with the Armstrong Flight Research Center, wears a full-pressure suit prior to a flight at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, July 20, 2023. Stallings is a retired U.S. Air Force colonel and previously piloted the U-2S Dragon Lady, an aircraft with similar capabilities to the ER-2. NASA uses the ER-2, which operates at altitudes from 20,000 feet to 70,000 feet, to collect information about the Earth’s resources, celestial observations, atmospheric chemistry and dynamics, and oceanic processes.
