After years of design, development, and testing, NASA’s X-59 quiet supersonic research 

aircraft took to the skies for the first time Oct. 28, marking a historic moment for the 

field of aeronautics research and the agency’s Quesst mission. 

The X-59, designed to fly at supersonic speeds and reduce the sound of loud sonic booms

 to quieter sonic thumps, took off at 11:14 a.m. EDT and flew for 67 minutes. 

The flight represents a major step toward quiet supersonic flight over land.
