NASA is developing an air traffic control system for automated drones

NASA is not down with drones flying around town all willy-nilly and potentially electrocuting North West. The space agency is developing an air traffic control network near Moffat Field, California for unmanned aircrafts at 400 to 500 feet meant to put regulations in place. As the New York Times pointed out, this would “in effect be a separate air traffic control system for things that fly low to the ground.” Unlike a normal air traffic control room, where Billy Bob Thorntons make very stressful decisions, the drone traffic control will be fully automated.
