Congratulations to our friends at Skunk Works® and @NASA!
Step one: break the sound barrier.✔️
The X-59 has officially flown at supersonic speeds for the first time, marking a major step forward on the path to quieting the sonic boom. Even faster and quieter flights are coming soon.

The geostationary lightning mapper we built aboard @NOAA's GOES-19 satellite captured the flash of a meteor as it exploded over the Northeast.
This rare event highlights how lightning mapper technology can detect everything from severe storms to extraordinary phenomena.

From the New Mexico desert to Saturn’s largest moon. 🪐
Working alongside @NASA, @JHUAPL and Sandia National Laboratories, our team helped validate Dragonfly’s heat shield through rigorous thermal-structural testing. The results bring us one step closer to delivering this rotorcraft safely to Titan.

In order to confirm it can handle a harsh entry into the atmosphere of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, the heat shield for NASA’s Dragonfly mission completed thermal-structural testing...and it performed even better than expected!
