Infleqtion Secures Three DOE Genesis Projects
Infleqtion received three U.S. Department of Energy Genesis Mission projects with collaborators including Argonne, Brookhaven, Lawrence Livermore, and the University of Colorado Boulder to advance AI-optimized quantum circuit design for nuclear applications, deployable atomic quantum sensing with Agentic AI, and nuclear fusion energy research, signaling a broader push to merge quantum computing with AI and HPC. The move is part of a DOE-led effort to build a quantum-centric science platform, with IBM committing $50 million in quantum compute access and ORNL installing a 20-qubit Pathfinder on-site to integrate quantum hardware with existing supercomputing resources.

About Pathfinder
The Space Shuttle Pathfinder is a Space Shuttle replica. It originated as STA-098, a test article constructed by NASA in 1977 out of wood and steel to test ground clearances and handling. It was purchased in the early 1980s by the America-Japan Society, Inc. which had it refurbished, named it, and placed it on display in the Great Space Shuttle Exhibition in Tokyo. The mockup was later returned to the United States and placed on permanent display at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, in May 1988.
