This milestone is significant in achieving supersonic flight in private aviation and changing how private jet travel is ...

The new supersonic plane breaks the mold with a radical new shape and digital cockpit, but it relies on ancient parts to make it all happen. NASA’s X-59 Quesst experimental aircraft has taken a ...

NASA is currently working on the X-59, a stiletto-like aircraft designed for quiet supersonic flight. The aircraft’s shape would stifle the sonic boom, making it sound more like the thunk of a ...

Boom Supersonic has sketched out broad details of a unique propulsion system it envisions as powering a supersonic passenger jet coming after its now-in-development airliner Overture. Blake Scholl ...

“Advances in aerospace engineering, materials science, and noise reduction now make supersonic flight not just possible, but safe, sustainable, and commercially viable,” the sheet said.

According to NASA, supersonic speeds are given a Mach number. Mach 1 is the speed of sound. Mach 2 is twice the speed of sound, and so on. Fighter jets like the McDonnell-Douglas F-15 Eagle are ...

For decades, supersonic commercial airline flight has been banned over land by global aviation law because of the problems the sonic boom can produce on the ground. That may change as early as ...

Reflecting this progress, Boom unveiled its 3D-printed ⅓ scale design model for Symphony at the Paris Air Show. The bespoke engine is optimized for sustainable supersonic flight and is designed to ...

The presentation will focus on the development of the appropriate shape memory alloys based on the requirement of reliable repeated actuation up to 100,000 thermal actuation cycles under high levels ...

Five years before Concorde’s first flight, another majestic supersonic aircraft took to the skies — and almost became the inspiration for an even faster passenger plane.

President Donald Trump signed several executive orders on Friday, lifting regulations on aviation technology and working to boost American manufacturing of drones. The trio of orders lifts ...
