It’s been 50 years since the Concorde first took flight. Yet for almost 20 years now, the skies have been strangely silent from the booms of supersonic commercial passenger aircraft. Join us as we explore Boom Supersonic, a new startup aviation company with a goal of bringing back supersonic passenger travel by the end of the decade through their Overture vehicle. And wait, United Airlines already bought 15 of them? And there’s a possibility that this could be the face of a new supersonic Air Force One?

SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Virgin Galactic are all about to launch some incredible endeavors in July of 2021. But which billionaire will make it to space first?
