Quesst: The Team
Members of the Quesst mission team are located at all four of NASA’s field centers traditionally associated with the agency’s historic aeronautical research. Learn about this crew working to quiet the sonic boom.
Quesst is managed by two of NASA’s aeronautics programs — the Advanced Air Vehicles Program and the Integrated Aviation Systems Program — and they do their work at all four of NASA’s aeronautics research centers.
Ames Research Center in California: X-59 configuration, systems engineering
Armstrong Flight Research Center in California: airworthiness of X-59, safety and mission assurance, flight/ground operations, flight systems, systems engineering, project management, community response testing
Glenn Research Center in Ohio: X-59 configuration, propulsion performance,
Langley Research Center in Virginia: systems engineering, configuration assessment, research data, flight systems, project management, community response testing
