And Splashdown! The Orion spacecraft is home after its 1.4 million mile journey through space.

Our measurements of the #Artemis I launch were featured in a BYU video. They captured so well the experience in 3 and a half minutes. Check it out! youtu.be/Ytl3IimWGhA

Listen to BYU undergrad Taggart talk about his rocket launch noise and sonic boom research, which won an POMA student paper prize. Way to go, Tagg!

3) Awards. A JASA Express Letters paper on wind noise was an Editor's pick: asa.scitation.org/doi/full/10.11… Another on sonic boom measurements made the journal cover: asa.scitation.org/action/showLar… And Taggart won a prize for a POMA on Falcon-9 sonic booms: asa.scitation.org/doi/abs/10.112…

Honored to have my paper chosen! It was fun getting a chance to analyze the Falcon-9 launch and reentry.

It is fun having Tagg as a student; he works hard, writes well, and has a lot of good ideas!

Coolest launch we’ve done yet 🙌 and the LOUDEST

Signal Processing A great explanation, except it's generally not an energy. It's the signal's complex amplitude (magnitude & phase) at each frequency. Energy often requires magnitude-squaring of the Fourier transform, X_k. Calling a Fourier spectrum an energy spectrum needlessly confuses students.

Sonic boom measurements require hardware with response good to 0.1 Hz, but the mics have low sensitivities/high noise floors. This JASA Express Letters describes a digital filtering method to enable use of lower noise mics with higher corner frequencies. asa.scitation.org/doi/10.1121/10…

Our article describing initial findings on the ARCHIVED: NASA_SLS NASA Artemis I launch noise comes out later today in JASA Express Letters. While we're waiting - relive the adventure had by BYU students and faculty members! youtube.com/watch?v=Ytl3Ii…

It's out! Here is the link to our #openaccess publication about the noise from the NASA Artemis I launch of ARCHIVED: NASA_SLS. Among other findings, we see a need to revise noise models developed prelaunch. asa.scitation.org/doi/10.1121/10… NASA BYU Everyday Astronaut Scott Manley

Pretty awesome article from the Smithsonian on our Artemis measurement 🙌 smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/how…

Dear Kellogg's, What do @ricekrispies and ARCHIVED: NASA_SLS sounds have in common? They both crackle. We found the noise from the world's most powerful rocket 5 km away to be equal to about 40 million bowls of cereal. Just thought you'd like to know. doi.org/10.1121/10.001…

What is a Falcon 9 sonic boom like? Check out as two BYU students listen to their first Falcon 9 boom! youtu.be/gF2Jo6z5RFc

BYU PASCAL students are headed back from a highly productive two days presenting their research and visiting with scientists NASA Langley Research Center. We are trying to improve the upcoming acoustical measurements of X-59, the first quiet supersonic aircraft.

Taggart is presenting on a Falcon 9 launch and landing measurement at Vandenberg Space Force Base. Great launch and sonic boom audio! #ASA184
