Nasa's X-59: The future of supersonic travel

IndiaTimes Saturday, 13 January 2024
NASA and Lockheed Martin have unveiled the X-59 quiet supersonic aircraft, a major achievement in aviation. The experimental plane is part of NASA's Quesst mission to challenge the ban on commercial supersonic flights over land due to sonic booms. The X-59, designed to reduce noise with its unique shape, is set to undergo testing, with the first flight scheduled for later this year. The collaboration between NASA and Lockheed Martin aims to shape the future of supersonic travel.
