NASA's Headquarters has announced two significant events coming up in August. The first event, on August 19, will see NASA experts present on "Quesst" – a mission aimed at pioneering the future of supersonic flight. This event, coinciding with National Aviation Day, will be held at the Webb Auditorium from 11:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. Dr. Dave Berger, an aeronautics expert, will delve into the experimental X-59 aircraft, explain the science behind sonic booms, and discuss the challenges and solutions in designing supersonic aircraft that produce significantly quieter sounds. Pre-registration is encouraged for this free event.
The second event, on August 27, will explore "Lunar Environmental Considerations for Moon Base Science and Exploration." This discussion, featuring NASA's Chief Exploration Scientist Dr. Jake Bleacher, is scheduled from 11:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. More details on the specifics of this event will be provided closer to the date. As always, seating on a first-come, first-served basis will be available at both events.
