As space becomes increasingly easy to access through the proliferation of commercial launch vehicles, cislunar space and the lunar surface are poised to become the world’s next great frontier. Two APL teams are exploring the strategy, policy and technology needed to promote peaceful, collaborative use of this region in the years to come.

The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that the transportation sector accounts for approximately 27% of all greenhouse gas emissions annually in the United States, and emissions from road transportation — driven by carbon-creating internal combustion vehicles — account for a large majority of that.

APL joins a University of Louisville-led team developing neuromodulation therapies for spinal cord injuries as part of a National Institutes of Health grant.

Porche will leverage more than 30 years of leadership and engineering expertise to guide experts as they combines innovative technical knowledge and operational analysis to create emerging capability solutions to national security challenges.

The Environmental Protection Agency recently declared PFAS an urgent public health and environmental issue facing communities across the United States. APL scientists are developing technologies to capture and destroy these harmful “forever chemicals.”

Johns Hopkins APL is teaming up with the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies to provide professional development training and state-of-the-art facilities for top U.S. Space Force leadership candidates

APL has named Ann Kedia chief communications officer and head of the Laboratory’s Communications Department, a team of professionals dedicated to conveying and elevating the impact of APL innovations on the nation and the world.

Recognizing the leadership and technical contributions of two Johns Hopkins APL staff members, the Society of Women Engineers has honored Alice Bowman with the prestigious 2022 Resnik Challenger Medal and Kerri Phillips with its Emerging Leader Award.

Jon Berry and Lisa Blodgett from APL’s Force Projection Sector were awarded the Bronze Medal and Vice Adm. Charles E. Weakley Award, respectively, at the National Defense Industrial Association’s Fall Conference in September.
