✈️ JUST IN: The X-59 has gone supersonic!
The X-59 achieved supersonic speeds for the first time ever today — a major milestone for NASA’s Quesst mission and an important step toward upcoming flights that will demonstrate its quiet supersonic technology ahead of future community overflights.
Fast now. Quiet soon. 🔊➡️🤫

ALT NASA’s X‑59 eXternal Vision System digital display shows green flight data overlaid on the forward scenery as the aircraft flies supersonic. Numerical indicators, horizon references, and a Mach‑number readout are visible on the screen.

Following a gear collapse at the gate in Frankfurt, Lufthansa 787-9 D-ABPQ has been significantly damaged. Today’s LH450 has been canceled. We are awaiting more information on any potential injuries.

This is probably the best look at the shockwaves I’ve seen from the latest Starship flight.
Captured from a GoPro I clamped onto a proper camera to record simultaneous video. (I’ll show you the photo the better camera took in the reply)

Not a bad way to spend day two on the job.
Thanks for the flight, @NASAAdmin, and best of luck to @SpaceX on Starship Flight 12!

Looking forward to seeing B19 roll back out in its launch configuration without the various lines/wires scattered across its aft.

Two flights. One day. ✈️
NASA’s X‑59 just completed its first dual‑flight day, reaching 43,000 feet and near supersonic speeds as teams continue working toward quieter supersonic flight.
Another step toward making quieter supersonic travel a reality.

エアバスA320のサイドスティックの作業（A330など）。カバーの裏で起こるもの。ほとんど見る機会が無い--今回はトランスデューサの交換のためにサイドスティックが取り外された。

You didn’t just witness a landing—you heard it roar in. This Boeing 737 MAX 8 hit SAN with a powerful audible wake and visible wingtip vortices trailing behind for Alaska Airlines during Airline Videos Live on May 5th, 2026.

Booster 19 rolls out to the pad for its second static fire campaign ahead of Starship Flight 12. This booster is now sporting a fresh coat of black paint and appears flight-ready!

Wonderful new video of NASA's X-59 quiet supersonic demonstrator being put through its paces in the recent test flight
We need to get back to building lots of X-planes

Scientists have created one of the most detailed 3D reconstructions of a human cell (eukaryotic cell) ever produced.
This groundbreaking model, often termed a "Cellular Landscape Cross-Section Through a Eukaryotic Cell," combines data from X-ray tomography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and cryo-electron microscopy to map molecular structures in extreme detail.

SpaceX just released a mini documentary about the progress on their Starship program packed with exclusive footage we've never seen before.
Three years since the first flight of Starship, the next generation is here. New ship. New booster. New engines. New pad and new test site. SpaceX engineers are working to solve one of the most difficult engineering challenges in history: developing a fully, rapidly reusable rocket

SNEAK PEEK 👀 Here's an overview of Starship HLS's mission profile. We eventually go over all the numbers & do some calcs to see if there's ways to reduce the tankers. I'll have a full-ish 90 min rough draft review up tonight for X subscribers, Patrons & YouTube members!
