it is the sub sonic x plane flight demonstrator to demonstrate technologies developed by langley andndustry partners. >> ok. i think what you are getting at is the supersonic, which is the x 59. that is going to first go in 2022. as a matter of fact, i just asked if there was any way i could get in it and fly along with the pilot. what it is going to do, eventually, now, this will be a smaller scale model, but, what this is going to do, we could go to hong kong, we could go to sydney, australia, all of these long trips in less than half the time. the idea is to develop, you remember the french and the european concorde? well, the problem was that was -- with that was, it omitted such a sonic boom -- it emitted such a sonic boom that it disrupted people's lives when it went from subsonic to supersonic and when it was coming down from supersonic to subsonic. the big bang that often you associated with the space shuttle coming home. well, what nasa is doing is developing this x 59 where it will be a very small sonic boom so you would not have to fly at sub sonic overland. but, you could

they are based at langley field. one of the things mitchell realizes as he is starting to train and he assembles his crew by may of 1921. as they train on the chesapeake bay and begin to bomb battleship silhouettes painted on the beach and they bomb islands and they bomb sunken >> off tangier that have been sunken in gunnery exercises and things like that, one of the things mitchell realizes is, what he terms, the water hammer effect. you can strike the ship directly, and that can work. but you cannot do as much damage or sometimes -- but you can do as much damage or sometimes more damage if you strike next to the ship. kind of like a deft charge against a summary in world war ii, the force of the explosion creates a water hammer. you explode next to and slightly below the ship and the explosion blows up into the whole -- hull, which tends to be less armored than the top part which is designed to repel shell fire. that is something he trains his people on as well. even if you cannot hit the deck, a near miss is as go

they throw one heck of a party at langley to celebrate. this is a incredible moment and has been called. i think correctly the high watermark the high point of billy mitchell's career. as an air power advocate i think that's absolutely true. i mentioned some later tests. these will occur in september 1921 in the chesapeake bay with uss, alabama. that's a photograph here and then in 1923 with uss, new jersey and uss, virginia off cape hatteras in both cases. they will test gas bombs white phosphorus bombs. that's actually a one of mitchell's planes dropping a white phosphorus bomb on the mass to the alabama there to test the effects of incendi aries to test the effects of gas on american ships older american ships, but nonetheless american ships and then mitchell will sink them and we'll send them all to the bottom replicating what he had done in the summer of excuse me in the summer of 1921 with those free the other german ships. what are the impacts of what he has done? what are the impacts of these four sinkings off of virginia in the su

students were also asked to complete an online survey written by three langley teachers.one of a different race where they are from. in response to blm and salvations i have wondered what about other racial groups, shouldn't we care about them as well. yes or no. i believe privilege based on skin color is a myth the chicken that is a yes or no. i refer to the coronavirus as the china virus before. i have tried speaking english with an accent, for example setting us, etc. yes or no and this is my favorite. i think my asian peers are really good at math. saying yes to that is really bad. at the end of the survey students are instructed that if they answered yes to any of those questions that could be considered a micro-aggression. if that wasn't bad enough students were then told to watch videos from something called hashtag let's talk bias. >> protesting a couple days ago in town and this black man stopped me, we were holding a black lives matter sign and he says it is starts with you guys can put your bodies in front of us and stand up. i'm very androgynous in the way i d

can you share the latest on this explain program and langley's role in this and the other technology projects? >> we lost her sound there. >> you're talking about subsonic, not supersonic? >> correct. >> specifically, are you talking about the x-57 which is the electric airplane? >> no, it is the sub site flight demonstrator to demonstrate the technologies developed by langley and industry partners. >> i think what you are getting at is the supersonic which is the x-59. that is going to first go in 2022. it as a matter of fact, i asked if there was any way i could get in it and fly along the pilot. what it is going to do eventually, this will be a smaller scale model. what this will do is we could go to hong kong, we could go to sydney australia, all these long trips in less than half the time. the idea is to develop -- you remember the french and european concorde? the problem with that was that it needed such a sonic boom that it disrupted people's lives, not only one it went from subsonic to supersonic, but when it went from supersonic down to subsonic. you often associated with t
