I’ve been using this technology to develop my quiet flatuence AKA known as the Silent Killer.

I wonder how they got rid of the sonic boom. My guess is it’s still there, just not very loud.

Back in the 80’s sonic booms would cause head crashes in the Hard Disk Drives of the day.

Now Boom Supersonic may have to change it's name.
Victim of it's own success.

I am am reminded of Don Garlits’ words about Swamp Rat XXX, his streamlined dragster; something along the lines of poking a hole in the air and driving right through.

“In a stunning series of images, NASA has revealed the moment an experimental supersonic aircraft broke the sound barrier without producing a sonic boom audible at ground level.”

It “broke” the sound barrier BEFORE the photos were taken.

They cannot micturate down my neck and say it is raining.

If there is no noise, by definition, there is no sound barrier broken.

The XB-1 captured in Schlieren imagery the moment it breaks the sound barrier, while producing no sonic boom (Credit: NASA/Boom Supersonic).

“This image makes the invisible visible—the first American-made civil supersonic jet breaking the sound barrier,” said Blake Scholl, Founder and CEO of Boom Supersonic, in a statement released this week.

What would the imagery have looked like if there was a sonic boom when it broke the sound barrier?

There guys need to do more than just saying, "trust me, the emperor really does have clothes."
