Boom! We cracked it! Today we are introducing Boomless Cruise—supersonic flights up to 50% faster with no audible sonic boom. We quietly (har har) demo'd this on XB-1's first supersonic flight—three times actually. 🧵👇

Skeptics: I’ll believe it when I see it Builders: I believe it, so I’ll make it

ICYMI: @boomsupersonic is hiring—engineers, machinists and techs who will work together in the world’s most vertically integrated aviation and energy company—and change the world by delivering a supersonic renaissance. Refer yourself or a friend and we will give you a badass

@DanielleFong I didn't bust my ass on supersonic flight for last 10 years only to shrug at the finish line.

Boom Supersonic's @bscholl came in hot today with one of the all-time greatest TBPN entrances: he started his interview from the seat of his supersonic jet XB1, then took us on a tour of his supersonic jet factory.

We asked @bscholl: don’t you think building turbines for AI data centers will distract you from bringing supersonic flight to the aviation industry? "I didn't bust my ass for 10 years to make power turbines. America needs it. We're losing to China and this is absolutely our

"The room I'm standing in does not exist at GE or Rolls Royce... They all sold off their supply chains and they can't make anything anymore." - @bscholl on avoiding natgas turbine supply chain issues "Being able to build our own parts is huge... We can resolve in an hour what

The best founders and companies have what I calll “escalating ambition” Elon starts by trying to send a plant into space. Now spaceX is launching reusable rockets, starlink Zuck started just trying to build a cool thing for colleges, now 1/3rd of all humans use his apps Blake

Good morning. On today’s show: – @mattkalish (DraftKings) – @emilmichael (Dept. of War) – @aginnt (Hydra Host) – @bscholl (Boom Supersonic) – @NaveenGRao (Unconventional) – @gorkem (fal) – @pedroh96 (Brex) – Ofir Ehrlich (Eon) See you on the stream.

This is one of the cleverest stories in startups. For years we'd been worrying about how to finance the airliner. Then Boom realized that if they could build jet engines, they could build gas turbines, and fund the airliner with the profits.

42MW per unit. 1.21GW launch order. 420MW min order size. Also 90 days from concept to $1.3B backlog = $69M/day. The numerology is strong with this one💪

Thrilled to partner with @bscholl and the @boomsupersonic team to leverage their supersonic jet engine technology to power the AI factories of the future! More compute coming soon!

Thrilled to join @boomsupersonic on their next chapter! 🚀 Taking supersonic-grade engine tech and applying it to the power constraints of AI, Boom is launching Superpower, a 42MW gas turbine built to deliver stable, high-temperature, no-derate energy for next-gen data centers.

This power strategy makes a lot of sense for Boom, letting them monetize their engines early and get operational experience before the airframe is ready. I do think there’s an AI bubble and we’ll see some correction, but this will be viable before space data centers.

Blake becomes more and more impressive as I get to know him…this is just awesome.
