NASA has just covered engine performance tests on its X -59 research aircraft, which the Space Agency hopes that the weird golden boom of supersonic aircraft will prove a means of alleviating.
NASA and Lockheed Martin tested a single-modified F414-GE-10 engine between October and February, which will strengthen the aircraft and its subsystem.
“We have successfully progressed through our engine ground examination,” said Raymond Castner, an X -59 Propulsion Lead Raymond Costner at an agency at an agency. ReleaseThe “As forecast from the air tunnel test we were getting smooth and steady air flow. We had no structural or excess vibration problem. And the engine and parts of the aircraft that needed to cool was getting it. “
Plains go out in a loud noise when the mach 1 (the sound of the sound or the hours of 767 miles per hour – 1,234 kilometers/metric system) exceeds them) CrackThe combination of air pressure waves by creating a shock wave produced by the extreme speed of the aircraft.
That word – a Gold boom-The-on-and-the-day windows are shocking people, which managed the Federal Aviation Administration to ban non-military aircraft supersonic flights on the land in 1971. Commercial supersonic travel could not be seen from its inherited travel ConcordAlthough fashionable, it was not operated fuel-south or economic, and it made a lot of complaints from the cities that fly. The final plane of Concord was in 2003.
NASA also released some beautiful neat footage, which you can test below. First, the X -59 team examines the aircraft’s hydraulic and its electrical and environmental control measures. Then they perform the throttle checks and drop the aircraft’s after -burners at the highest (as seen in the top image). Known as these patterns seen in the plum Shock diamondSup

First x -59 Roll out Its hangers in the city of Paddale, California in January 2024. The Large manifestation Was a sight: a 99-foot-long (30-meter) aircraft is just 14 feet (4.27 meters) tall and 29.5 ft (9 meters) wide, watching a needle of each inch that meant to cut through the air through the air to cut the stiletto-tribal design Points completely (not any pong are intended): It should be thin on the ground, the change of pressure flowing over the ground should be reduced, which usually reduces a golden boom into a golden thump. A NASA engineer Comparison The sound of the X -59 for a vehicle’s door closed.
To that end, the X -59 engine has been mounted on the top of the aircraft, which reduces the sound of the sound from the aircraft to the ground.
Attempts for supersonic travel resurrection are also coming from the private sector. In late January, the Aerospace Agency Boom Supersonik, his experimental aircraft (XB -1 protester) flown faster than the first word, earned three times on that flight.
X -59’s cruise height will be 55,000 feet (16,764 meters) and designed to hit 925 miles per hour (1,489 km per hour). NASA did not provide an updated timeline for the first aircraft’s first aircraft in their recent release (the aircraft was originally scheduled to build that aircraft last year), but the notice said that more tests were still needed.
Specifically, the electronic magnetic intervention and how the aircraft operates the data in normal and failure situations to examine. To the end, taxi tests will be performed – an important test will be performed to perform the final goal of implementing this aircraft.
Once NASA has flown X -59 for the first time, the agency will give the aircraft through multiple tests that explore how the so -called golden thump of the aircraft actually experienced on the ground. These demonstrations will run within 2027 – though that time line will probably depend when the jet actually become airborne.
