WASHINGTON — A series of steep cuts in aeronautics research at NASA threaten to undermine the nation's aviation industry and delay a new air traffic system needed to prevent gridlock in the skies, according to members of Congress, industry officials and scientific leaders.
Groups of lawmakers from both parties, academics and aerospace leaders say the reductions are hampering NASA's ability to develop new aviation technology.

"I think its almost criminal," said Roy Harris, retired head of aeronautics at NASA's Langley Research Center in Virginia. "We are dropping the ball."
