•NASA will fly F-15s through supersonic shock waves behind its experimental X-57 jet
70% Informative
The X-59 jet is designed to fly faster than the speed of sound without generating the thunderous sonic booms associated with supersonic flight.
To help the agency measure these thumps, NASA 's F-15B research aircraft will fly behind the jet.
Two specially designed probes will collect "precise pressure data" about the jet's shock waves.
A date has not yet been set for the X59 's first test flight.
