NASA has taken a major step toward quiet supersonic flight with the official start of taxi tests for its experimental X-59 ...

NASA and the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) tested a model of the X-59 experimental aircraft in a supersonic ...

NASA and Lockheed Martin have begun initial taxi tests of the X-59 Quesst quiet supersonic research aircraft, marking another step toward its long-anticipated first flight. The aircraft moved under ...

Supersonic tunnel trials suggest the X-59’s shape can scatter shock waves, paving the way for hush-hush high-speed flight.

Researchers from NASA and the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) recently tested a scale model of the X-59 ...

NASA’s X-59 will help change the way we travel, bringing us closer together in much less time,” said NASA deputy administrator Pam Melroy in a statement.

American space agency NASA announced it has completed the electromagnetic interference testing for the X-59 supersonic test aircraft ...

The X-59 QueSST will fly next year in its mission to revolutionize supersonic flight—by making it quieter.

The supersonic X-59 plane is designed to fly Mach 1.4 with quieter booms, NASA says. NASA's supersonic plane is now one step closer to its flight demonstration over U.S. communities. The X-59 ...

If NASA’s bet on the X-59 pays off, it will revolutionize commercial aviation, making the journey from New York to Paris a four-hour joyride.

NASA engineers fired the engines on the X-59 research aircraft in advance of planned test flights to determine if the aircraft can reduce sonic booms and make supersonic flight over land quieter.

NASA’s X-59 quiet supersonic research aircraft sits in its run stall at Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works facility in Palmdale, California, firing up its engine for the first time. (Image credit ...
