A Sonic Boom

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

When an airplane flies faster than sound, it creates a sonic boom. The sound waves pile up behind the plane in a cone-shaped shock wave. Sometimes, a cloud forms as the plane breaks the sound barrier. The exact cause of this cloud is still debated among scientists.
