In this episode of The Quiet Crew, you’ll meet Ray Castner, NASA's propulsion lead for the Quesst mission. Ray has been with NASA 32 years and has worked on every X-59 research project at NASA Glenn Research Center. As a child, Ray loved to take things apart. These days, he likes to spend his time vacationing out west with his family or building and flying RC airplanes. He is part of the crew on a mission to transform aviation as NASA and communities work together to verify that the X-59’s quiet, supersonic design can turn a sonic boom into a sonic thump. This new technology, along with a potential change in regulations, will allow airliners to fly faster over land, cutting passenger travel time in half without disturbing people on the ground.
