By Ishika Mahadani, The Lawrenceville School, NJ This paper explores how quantum teleportation works, the challenges involved in transmitting quantum information, and what recent breakthroughs mean for the future of communication. Quantum teleportation is a way to send the state of a quantum particle from one place to another, without moving the particle itself. [insert whoever found this] recently found that quantum communication could one day work outside carefully controll

By Shane Mayer, The Lawrenceville School, NJ On April 1, 2026, NASA launched Artemis 2, a 10-day mission that traveled around the moon carrying a crew of four aboard the Orion spacecraft. The spacecraft returned Friday, April 10th, marking the first crewed mission to the Moon or beyond low Earth orbit in 50 years and reached a record-setting distance for human spaceflight (traveled 252,756 miles away from Earth). Artemis 2 served as a critical test flight, gathering informati

By Diya Poluru; Technology Columnist; The Lawrenceville School, NJ Antimatter - among the world’s rarest, most mysterious, and most expensive substances, typically known to cost over $60 trillion per gram. Antimatter is extremely fragile and difficult to handle, and upon contact with the matter that makes up our world, it could annihilate. However, last month, physicists successfully transported antimatter by truck for the first time, safely moving trapped antiprotons across

By Max Garsten; Chapter Head ; Choate Rosemary Hall, CT When the James Webb Space Telescope began peering into the distant universe, astronomers expected to see the first faint galaxies and stars. But surprisingly, the astronomers also found tiny red dots that don't match any known celestial object. Researchers have been calling them little red dots (LRDs), or informally “rubies” (Nature, Ahart, 2025). These objects, seen with light from a universe less than two billion years

By Diya Poluru; Tech Associate; The Lawrenceville School, NJ Picture this: a disc of yttrium barium copper oxide, a superconductor, discovered in liquid nitrogen boiling into gas at room temperature, hovering above a track of magnets. No strings attached, nothing holding the disc up except pure science. You wave your hand beneath it, above it, but it stays put. You even tilt it at an angle, and it remains there, suspended in the air. Give the disc a quick push with your fin

By Ananya Chopra, The Lawrenceville School, NJ As the most powerful launch vehicle ever built, Starship represents a vision for a reusable and scalable space transport system that will transform the spaceflight industry. Its design for full reusability, massive payloads, and deep-space missions has the potential to transform the future of human space exploration, satellite logistics, and commercial access to orbit. Unlike traditional rockets, which discard the upper stages a

By Joshua Wang, The Lawrenceville School For nine years after the last flight of the space shuttle on July 21, 2011, NASA depended on the Russian Soyuz spacecraft to send astronauts and scientists to the International Space Station (ISS). In 2014, as an effort to promote cost-effectiveness, competition, and independence from foreign space organizations, NASA awarded US companies Boeing and its competitor, SpaceX, with contracts to develop new systems for ISS transportation.
