If NASA's plane test is successful, New York will reach Delhi in just 8 hours

Washington, Ta. 19 December 2019 Thursday

NASA, the US space agency, has built a plane that can deliver you to your destination at a speed of two and a half times faster than the speed of sound.

If new aircraft are built based on the technique of this aircraft, you will be able to fly at higher speeds for the second time in the next two years. That is, the distance from New York to Delhi will be completed in about 8 hours. It now takes about 15 hours.

This aircraft is named X-59 Quest

This NASA aircraft is named X-59 Quest. For three decades, NASA has been working on a project on how to reduce sonic boom at supersonic speeds. They now have success because of this aircraft. So far the test has been coming true about this.

This company got permission to build

NASA said the US government has now granted Lockheed Martin Company permission to make the aircraft public. However, the design will be changed. So that more passengers can sit in it.

If all goes well, the first flight in 2021

NASA said that until now the test flight of the X-59 quest aircraft was underway, but now it has been allowed to build. So by the end of 2020 this aircraft will be against the civilian form. The first flight will be completed by 2021. This will fly at a height of 55 thousand feet.

Cost Rs 1755 crores, speed of 1510 KM per hour

According to NASA, the aircraft will take about 1755 million total for testing and further development. Lockheed Martin will be producing a new version of this at a cost. X-59 quest aircraft have a maximum speed of 1,510 km / h which means that the distance from New York to Delhi (11765 KM) will be completed in 8 hours.

The first Super Sonic civilian aircraft was Concord  

In 2003, the then Super Sonic civilian aircraft was shut down following an incident. The maximum speed of this aircraft was over 2000 km / h. That is, almost twice the speed of the sound but as the sound speed barrier was breaking, there was a lot of sonic boom. That sounds like a bomb blast. So I stopped managing it.
