NASA’s New Supersonic Jet X-5
NASA has partnered with Lockheed Martin to make a new supersonic jet that produces a thumping sound when breaking the sound barrier instead of a boom. I chose this article for the ethical concerns this jet addresses, making safe high-speed travel above people and the environment. This is a great idea that needs lots of more testing and has been needed for many years. People and animals around the planet will benefit significantly from this technology. This jet also allows future aircraft to fly and produce less loud noises.
