We nailed it. During XB-1’s second supersonic flight, we partnered with NASA to take this Schlieren image of XB-1 pushing through the air at supersonic speeds. Here’s the shot, captured by NASA teams on the ground. It documents the changing air density around XB-1 and the

What does it take to capture a schlieren image? For NASA and Boom, it called for a quick-paced collaboration, exact timing, precision flying, and an avionics system enhancement we call JPS or Jason Positioning System. Explore the technology behind supersonic schlieren

Happy Pi day! The current date and time (14 March, 1.59pm) resemble 3.14159, the approximation of the mathematical constant Pi, or π. Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The ratio stays the same no matter how big or small the circle is. #π #PiDay

Save yourself some frustration and avoid ordering from Sneakers.com! Apparently, if you don't upgrade, you're stuck with customer service that will do absolutely nothing to help you, offering no exchanges, no returns, and just a simple "sorry!" Just pathetic. AVOID!
