Sonic Boom Reduction explores the exciting possibility of a future with quieter supersonic flight, examining the science and technology driving this innovation. Historically, the intense sonic boom produced by aircraft exceeding the speed of sound has been a major obstacle. This book dives into how advanced aircraft designs, like modified wing shapes, and a better understanding of atmospheric conditions can significantly reduce the impact of these booms. The book draws from research, including NASA's QueSST program, to illustrate real-world advancements.

The book approaches the topic through a combination of theoretical explanations and practical applications, starting with the physics of sonic boom formation and progressing through design strategies and the regulatory landscape. You'll learn how computational fluid dynamics and new materials are contributing to this shift. By connecting aerospace engineering with environmental science and public policy, the book offers a broad perspective on the challenges and opportunities of supersonic travel.

The ultimate goal is to reconcile the desire for faster travel with environmental responsibility.
