NASA's X-59 aircraft uses radical design to reduce sonic booms to 75-decibel thumps, potentially ending the 50-year ban on ...

NASA captured a stunning, first-of-its-kind image showing the colliding shock waves from two jets flying at supersonic speeds. The images, which feature a pair of T-38s from the U.S. Air Force Test ...

Researchers made the first observations of waves of atomic rearrangements, known as phasons, propagating supersonically through a vibrating crystal lattice -- a discovery that may dramatically improve ...

Two U.S. Air Force craft were traveling so fast — quicker than the speed of sound — and so close together that the shock waves emanating from the craft began to merge… and NASA was there to capture ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new technique to generate magnetic waves in antiferromagnets that propagate through the material at a speed much larger than the speed of sound. These so-called spin ...
