In this episode of The Quiet Crew, you’ll meet the co-technical lead for the prediction and validation of tools for the Quesst mission. For Sriram Rallabhandi, when he isn’t working, his children are his first priority and that includes time spent together solving Rubik's Cubes, teaching them math or playing pickleball. He is part of the crew on a mission to transform aviation as NASA and communities in the U.S. work together to verify that the X-59’s quiet, supersonic design can turn a sonic boom into a sonic thump. This new technology, along with a potential change in regulations, will allow airliners to fly faster over land, cutting passenger travel time in half without disturbing people on the ground.
