Smells like the article is wrong from the get-go when it says that Langley Research Center is outside of Washington. I guess a six hour drive to Hampton Roads/Norfolk counts as outside of Washington. When a basic fact like that was wrong, I cannot trust anything else that the author says.

"Langley Research Center (LaRC) is located approximately 150 air miles south of Washington, D.C. in Hampton, Virginia" Source: http://crgis.ndc.nasa.gov/historic/Langley_Research_Center#Location_and_Land_Area

Uh...175 miles or so is a 6 hour drive for you?? You must be driving a Volt, pal!
