NASA’s X-59 is Amazing! #shorts

This is about the X-59, NASA's high-tech solution to the noise problem caused by sonic booms. #shorts

I miss sonic booms. I grew up near an air force base and they could rattle our windows. As a kid, it was fun. Probably not as much now, but I kinda miss them. The first thing we need to improve, is the people IN the airplane, and make them less of a cattle car and go back to the more spacious seating with friendlier people and staff. Not tying Ken or Karen into a seat for trying to open a door at 40, 000 ft.

I'm not going to argue that Concorde failed in it's initial goal. But it did fly for 27 years, 21 years longer than concordeski and 27 years longer the the boeing 2707. So not entirely a failure i would say

Humanity needs improvements in air travel

[RobSoRandom]

Big shout out to the engineers that fix this problem

[viviennepopek]

What a shame, you gotta have
the sonic boom 👍💖👏

[sweatybotfn]

Impossible 😂 even the sound of an engine is louder than a car door closing, it’s probably a popular American idea that either never happened or got scrapped due to technical problems

[brucegow]

Hopefully it’s a new era NASA invented the cordless drill for the astronauts way back. Keep up the good work and the technology.

[rockhardbalboa]

Concord didn’t fail. It was mismanaged.

[e.kasiano]

Just release the gravity augmenting technology already. Let the private sector make improvements for all to benefit from

[Imnotabot_]

The cost: billion quadruple quintillion billion dollars

[rafaelsays]

Hey earthlings, slow down. What's the rush getting somewhere?

[IronFist.]

Concorde did not fail
Perhaps not as successful as anticipated but it was profitable until the day it was prematurely retired

[Travis-etov]

Super sonic jets may be fast but ther extremely inefficient it consumes about 2 or 3 times the amount of fuel

[andgate]

Airlines wont use this design....because they cant fit passengers into 30% of the plane.

[americanveteran]

We where designing a plane concept that didnt have a sonic boom at twice the speed

[Pure-Luck]

UAPS UFO DRONES 🛸 are laughing that we still haven't worked some better out.

[cuddlepoo]

Still 10-20 years from supersonic travel and then only for the very rich.

[michaelpace]

Concord didn't fail shut down cause things were starting fail so plane was retired. 2 expensive to build new one s now.

[KIA-MIA-POW]

Contrary to your assertion that the Concord's demise was partially due to sonic booms is pure fiction.
