We invite you to join us for a livestream and celebrate with NASA Aeronautics as they roll out the newly painted X-59 and get the aircraft ready for its first flight.

Quesst is NASA's mission to demonstrate how the X-59 can fly supersonic without generating loud sonic booms and then survey what people hear when it flies overhead. Reaction to the quieter sonic "thumps" will be shared with regulators who will then consider writing new sound-based rules to lift the ban on faster-than-sound flight over land.
