    NASA’s X-59 is about to break the sound barrier for the first time

    NASA’s X-59 jet is set to break the sound barrier for the first time, aiming to reach Mach 1.6 at 60,000 feet. The aircraft is designed to replace the sonic boom with a quieter 'thump' to enable supersonic passenger travel over populated areas.
