We will use this plastic batch for research back on shore - analyzing every single piece for clues such as bite marks, brands, and production dates. (1/4)

Watch the unveiling of @NASAAero's X-59 aircraft, set to fly this year to test quieter supersonic flight technology. The Quesst mission could help bring a return to supersonic air travel over land.
Livestream starts Friday, Jan. 12 at 4pm ET (2100 UTC): go.nasa.gov/3S8deuT
ALT NASA’s X-59 research aircraft moved from its construction site to the flight line, or the space between the hangar and the runway, at Lockheed Martin Skunk Works in Palmdale, California on June 16, 2023. The move allowed the X-59 team to perform safety and structural testing, critical steps toward first flight. The X-59 can be seen in the foreground of this image, and in the background is a white hangar and blue sky. Image credit: Lockheed Martin.
