One year. New heights. Faster speeds. ✈️ Since its first flight on Oct. 28, 2025, NASA's X-59 has continued pushing the boundaries of aviation. See how far we've come in just one year! go.nasa.gov/4jLT7Su #NASAaero #Quesst

Wha everyone wants to know is the X-59's ground-level sound impact at supersonic speeds, compared to existing jets. That is the whole point of the program. Any preliminary data on that?

Considering you’re not mentioning the “Sonic Thump”, it must be making more noise than you hoped for. Probably trying different altitudes and acceleration parameters to see if you can make it work. I have a feeling it’s back to the drawing SI board.
