NASA has developed special probes that will fly aboard F-15B jets trailing closely behind its X-59 "quiet" supersonic jet in order to measure the shock waves it produces.

Once passenger flights had been discontinued, the then-Soviet airline Aeroflot operated an updated variant, called the ...

NASA has captured groundbreaking images of shock waves from supersonic aircraft, the space agency said, as part of efforts to create a jet that flies faster than the speed of sound without producing a ...

SUPERSONIC holiday flights over land are one step closer after an experimental “quiet” supersonic Nasa jet took flight. Late ...

A mysterious explosion lit up the Canary Islands before dawn. XYJ-7 satellite reentering the atmosphere caused a huge ...

NASA captured a stunning, first-of-its-kind image showing the colliding shock waves from two jets flying at supersonic speeds. The images, which feature a pair of T-38s from the U.S. Air Force Test ...

Two U.S. Air Force craft were traveling so fast — quicker than the speed of sound — and so close together that the shock waves emanating from the craft began to merge… and NASA was there to capture ...

Researchers made the first observations of waves of atomic rearrangements, known as phasons, propagating supersonically through a vibrating crystal lattice -- a discovery that may dramatically improve ...

Using the schlieren photography technique, NASA was able to capture the first air-to-air images of the interaction of shock waves from two supersonic aircraft flying in formation. NASA NASA captured a ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new technique to generate magnetic waves in antiferromagnets that propagate through the material at a speed much larger than the speed of sound. These so-called spin ...
