Science as art

This is not a piece of handmade art. It’s a photo of an airplane!

I’d buy this as a pendant … it’s a wow, isn’t it?

But it’s not a piece of handmade art. It’s a photo of an airplane!

This small-scale model of NASA’s X-59 Quiet SuperSonic Technology (QueSST, Lockheed Martin) airplane is pictured inside the Glenn Research Center’s 8×6-foot supersonic wind tunnel.

The goal: to make a quieter “sonic boom.” NASA is preparing for first flight later this year.
