Jeremy Vann and Ronnie Vance scoured the dustiest, most forlorn corners of NASA’s Langley Research Center in hopes of rescuing knowledge cast aside and nearly lost.

At the front lines of what’s been labeled the orphaned records phase of the center’s Records Management Initiative, these two contractors tackled a job that was at times tedious and, let’s face it, kind of grimy: rooting out piles of forgotten documents and figuring out where they belong.

Their work wasn’t glamorous, but it connected them with famous figures from our nation’s aviation past, such as Amelia Earhart and Orville Wright. At the same time, their task moved NASA Langley toward an improved records management program and a more organized, efficient, digitally crisp future.
