NASA’s X-59 Supersonic Aircraft: The Quiet Crew | A Profile of Bryan Watters

NASA’s X-59 Supersonic Aircraft: The Quiet Crew | A Profile of Bryan Watters

In this episode of The Quiet Crew, you will meet civil engineer Bryan Watters and learn about his role on the Quesst mission. Bryan has been supporting the mission by managing the restoration and modernization of hangar 4826—the future home of the X-59 aircraft. He is part of the crew on a mission to transform aviation as NASA and communities in the U.S. 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.
