The XB-1, which has now completed 12 successful test flights since it first took to the air in March 2024, is the precursor to the development of Boom’s supersonic commercial airliner, Overture.
Space Force officials have admitted that sonic booms from Vandenberg affect over 100 miles of California coast, just as SpaceX aims to ramp up launches. Mysterious sonic booms rattle SoCal coast ...
Boom first achieved supersonic flight last month when its XB-1 prototype hit Mach 1.12 while flying over the Mojave Desert. The firm said it placed microphones on the ground along the flight path ...
Starlink 3680 (or Starlink 2022-025P) launched in this stack has maneuvered and moved to Shell 1 of starlink satellites. Possibly some other satellites in this stack will also joining the Shell 1 Starlinks in near future.

No local sonic booms should occur with the upcoming Starlink 6-24 mission, which will deploy another batch of the company's internet-beaming satellites into low-Earth orbit.
However, HIAD development ceased in the mid-1970s when it was shown disk-gap-band supersonic parachutes were suitable for the Viking, Pioneer Venus and Galileo mission environments. [5] More recently, the need to enable robotic and crewed missions with larger payload mass has generated new investment in HIAD development.
Following a coast phase, Ship 30 reentered the atmosphere, performed a successful reentry despite forward flap damage, and executed a landing burn, splashing down precisely at its target in the Indian Ocean. A buoy camera captured Ship 30 exploding shortly after contact with the water. [8] 6 19 November 2024 22:00:00 [37] Block 1, B13: Block 1, S31
Boom is well on its way towards making sustainable supersonic flight a reality, aboard Overture – my #1 choice as a successor to Concorde.” The live stream of the test flight starts at 3.45pm GMT.
