NASA’s Approach to Quieting the Sonic Boom in Supersonic Aircraft

Aerodynamics, Engineering, Tech /

Supersonic air travel promises unprecedented speed but is hindered by the disruptive sonic booms that make it impractical over land. In collaboration with Lockheed Martin, NASA aims to overcome this obstacle with the X-59, an experimental aircraft designed for remarkable speed without the accompanying noise disturbance. Breaking Down Sonic Booms Sonic booms, akin to thunderclaps,
