AWS Braket powers simulators and hybrid systems to accelerate quantum computing
SHARE
Quantum computing has the potential to solve computational problems that are beyond the reach of classical computers by harnessing the laws of quantum mechanics to process information in new ways. But like all early technology, significant practical challenges must be overcome before this large-scale impact is achievable.
While the technology is not yet widely accessible, researchers and developers can get started with it, explore and build quantum algorithms, and then test them on circuit simulators using Amazon Braket, a fully managed quantum computing service.
“The goal of Bracket is to fundamentally give customers the ability to go test some of those notions, to explore the technology and to just start planning for the future,” said Richard Moulds (pictured, left), general manager of Amazon Braket at Amazon Web Service Inc.

From a SpaceX perspective, the commercial potential of quantum communications networks and its potential advantages of its rapidly deploying in-space comms architecture may provide significant optionality to the story and its valuation. While, to our knowledge, SpaceX has not commented in detail on the enabling technology (ie. particle entanglement generators, quantum repeaters, random number generators, advanced cryogenics, etc) or the economic potential of quantum communications, we believe the company s increasingly dominant position in space, satellite communications and DoD/government work makes this a natural extension of their capabilities. SpaceX continues to solidify its place as ‘mission control’ for the emerging space economy. Important milestones with Starlink, Starship and government contracts dovetail to support strong commercial momentum. We note that our recently revised EV valuation to over $100bn (bull case >$200bn) does not include any direct valuation attr

Momentus has a contract for its second customer on its hosted payload service, and will host a payload from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), called SSPD-1 at the end of next year. SSPD-1, which will demonstrate a wireless power transmission and a new deployable structure, is set to launch on Momentus’ Vigoride orbital transfer vehicle in December of 2021, and operate onboard the vehicle for about six months.
The hosted payload service is a new offering from Momentus, which is gearing up for the first flight of its orbital transfer vehicle, Vigoride, on SpaceX’s upcoming rideshare mission in 2021.
Bengaluru: Eminent Aerospace Scientist and Padma Vibhushan awardee
Roddam Narasimha passed away at a private hospital here yesterday night. He was 87. He was admitted to the hospital on Dec. 8 after he suffered a brain haemorrhage.
He is survived by his wife and a daughter. Last rites will be conducted today.
A former Director of the National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL), he had played a key role in the design and development of the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA), Tejas.
Born on July 20, 1933, Professor Narasimha made a mark in the field of aerospace and as a fluid dynamicist. He taught Aerospace Engineering at the IISc from 1962 to 1999. He also served as the director of the National Aerospace Laboratories from 1984 to 1993.
