The Supersonic FOMO: Creating Sounds You'll Never Hear
The ultimate sonic irony! When fighter jets break the sound barrier, they create that epic sonic boom that rattles windows for miles—but the pilots themselves? They're literally outrunning their own sound waves! 🤯 It's like throwing an amazing party but being too fast to attend it yourself. The physics here is mind-bending: once you exceed Mach 1 (about 767 mph), you're moving faster than the pressure waves you create can propagate through air. Everyone behind you gets the thunderous boom, while you zoom forward in blissful ignorance of your acoustic masterpiece! The pilot's dilemma: create the coolest sound in aviation and never get to hear it. Talk about a supersonic FOMO!
