With The Walter Cronkite Dragon
Traditional reporting brought to you by the most trusted dragon in the world, IQT Evening News delivers a straightforward, authoritative summary of national and international mainstream media coverage of quantum technologies.
“When Quantum Meets Orbit: Why It’s Not Too Early to Start Planning: The intersection of space and quantum technologies promises new capabilities, new complexities, and new risks” addresses the convergence of space sector growth with the rapid acceleration of quantum technology advancements.
“The Quantum Clock Is Already Ticking on America’s Autonomous Arsenal” addresses post-quantum cryptography (PQC) for autonomous weapons.
“Why financial institutions must act now on post-quantum cryptography” is telling us what we all already know, except that this is now coming from outside quantum and cybersecurity circles.
“A Scientific Achievement That’s Totally Random” is about quantum random number generation using quantum entanglement across interconnected superconducting systems at ETH Zurich.
“Quantum: The Next Frontier of Computing” features Jan Goetz, IQM Quantum Computers Co-Founder and CEO, making a PQC-like argument, but placing the sense of urgency on using quantum computers.
“Xanadu Quantum Technologies Hits Low-Loss Milestone in Photonic Quantum Hardware Push” is about some results from Xanadu partnering with Corning and Disco to reduce edge-coupling loss.
“Google quantum exec: US government funding would’ve come with ‘conditions’” is about Google declining a share of the US government’s recent $2B into quantum computing.
The “Bloomberg Wall Street Week: June 12th, 2026” podcast mentions the US government’s $2B investment in quantum computing.
Due to IBM receiving half of the US government’s investment into quantum computing, “Why the US Is Investing in Quantum Computing” is an IBM-centric look at this story.
And that’s the way it is, Monday, June 15, 2026.
