NASA Invites You to X-59 Rollout Watch Party
It?s almost time for NASA?s supersonic X-59 airplane to make its red, white, and blue public debut, and you?re invited to join friends and family in taking a front-row, virtual VIP seat to the rollout ceremony in the California high desert. As a historic milestone in aviation history, NASA is encouraging people across the nation and around the world to get together and celebrate the occasion by hosting a watch party to view the rollout festivities from their classrooms, homes, or anywhere else. Although NASA won?t provide snacks and refreshments, the agency does have some ideas to help you host a successful watch party. They include printable invitations, links to STEM-related activities, and a complete X-59 Watch Party Planning Guide. The centerpiece of NASA?s Quesst mission to study sound and help reduce the sonic boom made by supersonic flight to a sonic thump, the Lockheed Martin-built X-59 is scheduled to be rolled out from the company?s Skunk Works hangar in Palmdale, California on Jan. 12. The X-59?s rollout ceremony will be broadcast live on the NASA+ streaming service beginning at 4 p.m. EST on Jan. 12, 2024. The event also will air live on the NASA app, YouTube, and on the agency?s website. Viewers can also learn how to stream NASA TV through a variety of platforms, including social media.
