NASA's X-59 Quiet Supersonic Technology (Quesst) airplane aims to revolutionize air travel by generating a 'sonic thump' at lower decibel levels than traditional supersonic jets, potentially lifting restrictions on overland flights.
Jay Brandon, NASA's X-59 chief engineer, emphasized the importance of the initial engine tests, stating that they were crucial to verify the aircraft's systems, which include hydraulics, electrical, and environmental controls.
