NASA’s The Quiet Crew | Meet Acoustician Alexandra Loubeau

NASA’s The Quiet Crew | Meet Acoustician Alexandra Loubeau

In this episode of The Quiet Crew, you’ll meet Acoustician Alexandra Loubeau, Ph.D. and learn about her role in the Quesst mission helping to lead community testing of the X-59. Since Alexandra is a concert violinist, the first time she hears the X-59 fly it will be music to her ears! She is part of the crew on a mission to transform aviation as NASA and communities work together to verify that the X-59’s quiet, supersonic design can turn a sonic boom into a sonic thump. This new technology, along with a potential change in regulations, will allow airliners to fly faster over land, cutting passenger travel time in half without disturbing people on the ground.
