The Oklahoma City Sonic Boom Study Program: Public Reaction and Structural Impact, 1964-05-27
Scope and Contents
The Oklahoma City Sonic Boom Study Program aims to determine public reaction to sonic booms after extended exposure, focusing on structural damage and public opinion. Data is collected from instrumented houses and vehicles, as well as through public opinion polls and a complaint center. Results show minimal structural damage and varying levels of annoyance among the public. The program is ongoing, with plans to further study public reaction and overpressure levels.
