NASA’s deputy project manager for technology on the X-59, an experimental aircraft designed to mitigate the boom’s noise and vibration. “When we stacked the challenges facing supersonic ...

NASA unveiled the X-59, an experimental supersonic aircraft designed to produce a quieter sonic boom. The explosive noise happens when an aircraft travels faster than the speed of sound.

Now, NASA is working to change those regulations by transforming the boom into a “thump,” paving the way for a new generation of quieter supersonic aircraft. The agency is doing so through a ...

NASA’s experimental X-59 Quiet Supersonic Technology aircraft recently underwent a series of advanced ground tests that ...

Earlier this month, NASA ... boom design. And actually, before the X-59, we'd done some wind tunnel testing on what would be a next-generation supersonic transport. The whole concept for aircraft ...

Boom Supersonic has developed an aircraft designed to fly faster than the speed of sound, without an audible sonic boom ...

Planes that fly faster than the speed of sound create thunderous supersonic booms. But with NASA's X-59 plane, that could change. The space agency plans for the aircraft's first flight in 2025 ...
