NASA says the X59 supersonic jet will produce a sonic thump instead of a sonic boom, which might help lower it's noise.

Explore the details of the recent electromagnetic testing performed on the X-59 aircraft by NASA and Lockheed Martin.

EMI tests included checking for interference between X-59 and the radar-equipped F-15D chase aircraft. Credit: NASA EDWARDS AFB, California—NASA and Lockheed Martin have completed key engine and ...

It was caused by air pressure waves combining to form a shock wave produced by the plane’s extreme speed. The X-59 is designed to hit speeds of 924mph, at an altitude of roughly 55,000ft.
