In its mission to expand knowledge and improve aviation, NASA conducts research to address sonic boom noise, the prime barrier to overland supersonic flight. For half a century, civilian aircraft have been required to fly slower than the speed of sound when over land to prevent sonic boom disturbances to communities under the flight path. However, lower noise levels may be achieved via new aircraft shaping techniques that reduce the merging of shockwaves generated during supersonic flight. As part of its Quesst mission, NASA is building a piloted, research aircraft called the X-59 to demonstrate low noise supersonic flight. After initial flight testing to ensure the aircraft performs as designed, NASA will begin a national campaign of supersonic flights over communities to collect data on how people perceive the sounds from this new design. The data collected will support the efforts of national and international noise regulators to develop new standards that would allow supersonic flight over land at low noise levels. This presentation summarizes the NASA Quesst community survey campaign and motivates key topics for focused technical discussions.
