Description
NASA's X-59 QueSST (Quiet Supersonic Technology) is an experimental aircraft designed to demonstrate technology that reduces the noise produced by sonic booms, making supersonic flight over land feasible without disturbing communities below. Key Features and Goals Sonic Boom Reduction - The primary objective of the X-59 is to reduce the loudness of sonic booms to a level that is comparable to distant thunder or a car door slamming, termed a "sonic thump." Traditional sonic booms are loud and disruptive, creating regulatory and public acceptance barriers for supersonic flights over populated areas?7†source??10†source?. 2. **Innovative Design**: - The X-59 features a sleek, long nose and a unique fuselage shape designed to manage and distribute shockwaves. This innovative design helps to spread the shockwaves generated during supersonic flight over a longer period, thereby reducing the peak noise level heard on the ground. - The aircraft is built using advanced materials and aerodynamic technologies to ensure it meets its noise reduction goals while maintaining efficient flight characteristics.
