I apologize for any confusion in my previous response. However, it seems there might be some misunderstanding or misinformation regarding the specific context you are referring to.
To clarify, the space shuttle did not have jet engines like those found on traditional airplanes. Instead, the space shuttle used rocket engines during various stages of its launch and re-entry.
During re-entry, the space shuttle produced a series of sonic booms due to its high velocity. These booms were caused by the shock waves created as the shuttle traveled faster than the speed of sound. Sonic booms are characterized by a sharp, loud noise often described as an explosive sound. These booms were typically heard on the ground as the shuttle descended and passed through the atmosphere.
However, it's important to note that the sound produced by the space shuttle during re-entry would not resemble the sound of a jet engine. Jet engines generate sound through the combustion of fuel and the expulsion of high-velocity exhaust gases, while the space shuttle primarily relied on rocket engines that operate differently.
If you have any additional details or clarification about the specific scenario or sound you are referring to, please provide further information, and I'll do my best to assist you.
