Infleqtion supports U.S. leadership in space-based quantum sensing through its role in the Quantum Gravity Gradiometer Pathfinder Mission Led by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory LOUISVILLE, Colo. | August 25, 2026 – Infleqtion (NYSE: INFQ), a global leader in quantum computing and quantum sensing powered by neutral-atom technology, today announced NASA has awarded the company a $20 million follow-on contract to continue development of the Quantum Gravity Gradiometer Pathfinder (QGGPf), a mission led by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) that is designed to fly the world’s first space-based quantum gravity sensor. The award brings NASA’s investment in the programto $40 million and advances the mission into its next phase of hardware development and testing. “This follow-on award reflects the progress our team has made and marks an important step toward the mission’s next phase,” said Matt Kinsella, Chief Executive Officer of Infleqtion. “The path from quantum science to a system that can fly in space takes years of engineering, testing, and collaboration. Every milestone brings quantum sensing closer to enabling entirely new ways to observe our planet from orbit.” “There is an enormous amount of potential for quantum technology use cases in space. We are no longer testing the quantum technology itself, but ways we can use it in the space environment,” said Dana Anderson, Chief Science Officer at Infleqtion. “As a NASA-led mission with key contributions from U.S. industry, QGGPf is demonstrating how quantum gravity sensing can operate in low Earth orbit and establishing the technical foundation for future generations of space-based instruments.” The QGGPf mission is designed to demonstrate quantum sensor technologies that could transform how Earth’s surface gravity is measured from space. As a technology pathfinder, the mission is expected to help inform the design of future science-grade instruments, representing a major step forward in U.S. leadership in
