NASA STEM Stars: Low Boom Flight Demonstration - Acoustics Research

Watch two acoustic engineers, Joel Lonzaga and Will Doebler, discuss their work to make aircraft quieter on the Low-boom Flight Demonstration mission. The X-59 Quiet Supersonic Technology (QueSST) will fly faster than the speed of sound without the noise of a sonic boom.

“NASA STEM Stars” is part of a webchat series that connects students with subject matter experts to learn about STEM careers and ask questions about STEM topics.

We’re launching STEM Engagement to new heights with learning resources that connect teachers, students, parents, and caregivers to the inspiring work NASA is doing. Join us as we apply science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to explore space, improve aeronautics, examine Earth, and strive to land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon with the Artemis program.
