NAS Animated Storyboard is an online set of animations that demonstrate how the various programs or capabilities of the NextGen's National Airspace System (NAS) operate. Storyboarding is a way of communicating and understanding how our NAS works using animation. Storyboards show the major message flow and interaction among programs, facilities, systems and people.

Years later, more than 60 animations have been developed to educate individuals on the current NAS systems, programs and capabilities.
