NASA is researching Supersonic flight for commercial flight to make sonic booms sound like a thump, this was on NOVA, some might be mentioned Here.

NASA’s X-59 Quiet SuperSonic Technology (QueSST)
[snip]
“In 2024, NASA will fly the X-59 over select communities to measure public perception of the sound,” the agency said. “The data from these tests will be given to U.S. and international regulators, potentially opening the future to commercial supersonic flight over land.”

As previously reported by AVweb, NASA officially cleared the X-59 QueSST aircraft for final assembly in December 2019. Construction and systems integration are expected to be completed next year with the aircraft’s first flight scheduled for 2022. The X-59 was designed to test “technology that reduces the loudness of a sonic boom to that of a gentle thump.”

Every once in a while We get a sonic boom from fighter jets, it wasn't too bad, making the sound into a thump would be like trying to hear fwy noise and I can't even hear fwy noise from here.

For the first time in many years, not a countdown to lock down. Hi from Pasadena which won't be locked down due to a crush of out of town persons clogging the roads.

0.14" of rain here today, in a desert, chance of more rain? 24%

Current temp is 42F and feels like 38F, winds are 8mph from the NW.

And there is rain and snow south and east of here.

Thankfully there are no burn scars within 100 miles of here and there
is flood control north of My location between Me and the Calico Mountains.

Most of this info is from the WeatherUnderground android app.
