Seeing Blackbird fly again after all these years would be incredible. I’d love to know what NASA has planned for it.

    Based on their work on the X-59, I wonder if they just want to collect sensor data on its sonic boom characteristics, and feed that into a model for sonic booms.

    They don’t need to be able to build something in order to be able to learn something from that thing in operation.
