NASA(@NASA):Flying high! Today, our X-59 quiet supersonic X-59 aircraft traveled from Birmingham, Alabama, to Daytona Beach, Florida. The aircraft aims to fly faster than sound with just a gentle thump rather than a sonic boom — helping usher in a new era of faster air travel. We're prepping to feature X-59 at MAX POWER and will provide updates soon!
