NASA captures the exact moment Boom Supersonic’s XB-1 smashes sound barrier
In a stunning, glowing image, NASA has captured the moment that Boom Supersonic’s XB-1 demonstrator broke the sound barrier during tests last month.
Incredible NASA photo captures sound barrier being broken
A newly released image shows the sound barrier being broken on February 10 as Boom Supersonic’s XB-1, America’s first civil supersonic jet, completed its second supersonic flight.
Boom’s XB-1 research jet shockwave captured during supersonic flight
US aeronautics agency NASA managed to capture the Boom Supersonic XB-1 research aircraft as it broke the sound barrier during its final flight on 10 February. The flight - the XB-1's second in excess of Mach 1 - was the last in a series of test sorties by the aircraft,
A Plane Just Achieved Supersonic Flight Without the Sonic Boom
But while the successful test flight of XB-1 shows that supersonic flight without sonic booms is technically feasible, the next phase is making it economically feasible. Right now, both subsonic and sonic boom-producing supersonic travel are cheaper than using this Mach cutoff method.
Breaking the sound barrier quietly: Boom's new XB-1 could change supersonic air travel
Prior to 2003 a transatlantic trip from new york to london could be done in as little as 3 hours, compaired to today's fight time of around 8 hours. This was al
Image of prototype XB-1 caught breaking the sound barrier
NASA has released a new image providing photographic evidence of Boom Supersonic's XB-1 prototype aircraft breaking the sound barrier. Captured on the second supersonic flight, it used a special imaging technique to record the historic event.
NASA Captured a Supersonic Jet Breaking the Sound Barrier and the Image Is Unreal
Sonic booms have long been a barrier to overland supersonic flights. The Concorde was banned from virtually every country in the world because of the thundering noise. Only the US, Great Britain, and France allowed the Concorde to enter their airspace, and then only to cities in close proximity to the ocean — NYC, London, Paris, and Washington, DC.
Remarkable NASA photo captures civilian jet breaking sound barrier
Boom Supersonic​ and NASA on Monday released an image of the XB-1 aircraft during its second supersonic flight last month.
