Concept of the X-59 Quiet SuperSonic Technology airplane arriving at Edwards Air Force Base. Engineers are designing the X-59 to produce sonic booms that are so quiet they will only be heard from the ground as sonic thumps or not at all. NASA and Lockheed Martin are conducting this research as part of the Commercial Supersonic Technology project. This project aims to remove the technical barriers for commercial supersonic flight. | |
