Sites for launching large rockets are often equipped with a sound suppression system to absorb or deflect acoustic energy generated during a rocket launch. As engine exhaust gasses exceed the speed of sound, they collide with the ambient air and shockwaves are created, with noise levels approaching 200

Feb 16, 2023 · At roughly one mile from the launch site (1.5 kilometers, to be exact), the rocket’s noise was 136 decibels, which is roughly equivalent to standing 100 yards from a jet engine. At a little...

Rockets generate significant noise from the combustion process and turbulent mixing of the exhaust flow with the surrounding air. Figure 1 is a sketch of rocket noise.

Feb 14, 2023 · The SLS liftoff from Kennedy Space Center in November exceeded pre-launch noise models by more than 20 decibels, new research found.

Nov 8, 2024 · Embark on a cosmic journey with the powerful, deep rumble of a space rocket launching into the vastness of space. This 12-hour audio experience simulates the intense yet soothing sounds of a...

Nov 18, 2024 · BYU team measures the thunderous noise of the world’s most powerful rocket, exploring its impact on communities and the environment. The BYU PASCAL research team from left to right: Kent Gee, Makayle Kellison, Noah Pulsipher, Logan Mathews, Grant Hart, and Mark Anderson in Boca Chica Beach.

Jan 26, 2025 · When the Artemis 1 mission was launched in November, it became the world's most powerful rocket, and with liftoff came a loud roar heard miles away. Researchers report noise measurements during...

Nov 21, 2024 · Starship is currently the world’s most powerful rocket, and its sound levels show it. One launch of this behemoth produces as much noise as at least ten of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 launches, per the...

Nov 17, 2024 · The team found that Starship produces significantly more noise at liftoff than both SLS and Falcon 9 in both A-weighted and Z-weighted (unweighted) noise metrics.
