Supersonic jet that will fly you from LA to NYC in less than 3 hours tested in California

Article excerpt

NASA's experimental X-59 supersonic jet is being tested in California with the potential to cut Los Angeles-to-New York flights from five-plus hours to under three. The aircraft represents a major step toward reviving commercial supersonic travel, a field dormant since the Concorde retired in 2003. If successful, the technology could fundamentally reshape cross-country aviation, though significant regulatory and commercial hurdles remain before passengers board these ultra-fast planes.
