Parallel lines extending outward from the aircraft depict acoustic shockwaves the X-59 is predicted to create during supersonic flight that will result in a quieter sonic “thump”.

Supercomputers Aid Quesst Researchers in Predicting X-59’s Sound

Before the X-59 flies, NASA researchers are getting ahead of the curve by using computational fluid dynamics to create what is, essentially, a virtual wind tunnel showing incredible aerodynamic detail.
