This is so cool! I thought the X series wasn’t a thing anymore.

Supposedly coming out next year! NASA is committed to prevent greenhouse gasses from harming our planet and I commend them for caring :)

We are still decades from having electric planes that can fly long distances. Personally, I don’t like the idea of electric aircraft. They would be too unpredictable in my opinion.

I remember doing a presentation on this in 9th grade! I specifically remember the X-57 being the only one being somewhat far along in development. It’s so cool that it is continuing to be developed further!

And here was I thinking NASA was only focussing on Space travel…

How high did you say the X-57 goes? 🚀

Remember 10 years ago, Tesla with electric cars, people also said it was stupid, but now the future is electric cars, maybe the same thing will happen with this electric aircraft.
