Watch: NASA and Lockheed Martin's experimental aircraft stops in Fort Worth
The Lockheed Martin X-59 Quesst , an experimental supersonic aircraft built by Lockheed Martin in partnership with NASA, made a brief stop in Fort Worth on Thursday during its return ferry flight to California. The aircraft’s unique shape is designed to limit the volume of its sonic boom with the goal of future commercial supersonic flights over land. “Our transit times have been limited by the sonic boom,” said Pat Lebeau, Lockheed Martin’s program manager for the X-59. In test flights the X-59 has turned the sonic boom into the sound of distant rolling thunder for listeners on the ground, he said. The aircraft is designed to cruise at a maximum speed of Mach 1.4 at an altitude of 55,000 feet.

A Tarrant Dem exited a Texas House race, then won. Now she plans to take office.
A North Texas Democrat who won the race for House District 93 despite suspending her campaign amid eligibility questions related to a conviction says she is qualified for office and plans to assume the elected position. Ericka Lomick won Nov. 3 elections for the Fort Worth area district , defeating Republican Alan Blaylock, a former Fort Worth City Council member. She left the race in the weeks before Election Day for a full term beginning in January and a partial term to fill the remainder of former Rep. Nate Schatzline’s current term, after he left the office early and didn’t seek reelection. He went on to work as a senior advisor for Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. Lomick’s campaign cited “questions” around her eligibility as the reason for the campaign’s suspension. Specific circumstances that would disqualify her from serving weren’t mentioned, but the announcement followed a news release from a political action committee claiming Lomick has a felony record. Given the timing of her exit, Lomick’s name remained on the ballot for the midterm election and special election. She won more votes than Blaylock in both instances. Federal court records out of North Carolina show that an Ericka Lomick was convicted

Texas football playoffs: Analyzing paths for Aledo, North Crowley, Carroll, more
The UIL Texas high school football playoffs are here. See analysis breaking down potential playoff paths and top storylines to watch: Can anyone challenge North Crowley? North Crowley (10-0, 7-0), ranked No. 1 in Class 6A by Dave Campbell’s Texas Football, will be a considerable favorite the entirety of the playoffs. But just because teams are expected to win, doesn’t mean it always happens. North Crowley still has to stay healthy, execute and avoid the upset against some of Texas’ top squads. In addition, a potential regional final matchup against No. 10 Longview could be in store. The state championship will likely be the toughest game for whatever team makes it out of the Region 1 and 2 side, as No. 4 Houston King (9-1) or No. 5 Ridge Point (10-0) could be waiting. A matchup against No. 2. Allen (10-0), a team in the Division I bracket that has a case for best in Texas football, won’t happen. Why Southlake Carroll could be dangerous If North Crowley comes out of Region 2, it could rematch No. 16 Southlake Carroll (8-2), a team that will likely provide a much tougher challenge than in nondistrict play, when the Dragons fell to
