(Natural News) Scientists from The Ohio State University are collaborating with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to assess the dangers posed by “drones that share airspace with planes.” The collaboration is part of a multi-institution study on unmanned aerial systems.

In November, a research team from the Alliance for System Safety of UAS through Research Excellence (ASSURE) published a report which revealed that “drone collisions with large manned aircraft can cause more structural damage than birds of the same weight for a given impact speed.” For the report, ASSURE utilized two different types of drones on two types of aircraft via computer modeling and physical validation testing.
