The latest edition of The Prototype brings exciting developments in the world of science and technology. From a groundbreaking biodegradable plastic made from trees to a $3 million prize awarded to CERN scientists working with the Large Hadron Collider, there’s plenty to be excited about. Let’s dive into some of the key highlights from this week’s newsletter.

Plastic pollution continues to be a major environmental concern, with only 9.5% of plastics manufactured in 2022 being made from recycled materials. However, a team of engineers and scientists in Japan has developed a new plastic alternative derived from paper. This innovative material is clear, moldable, and biodegradable, making it a promising solution for single-use plastics like cups, straws, and packaging. The material has been tested in various environments and proven to biodegrade even in the deep ocean.

In a significant recognition of scientific achievements, CERN researchers were awarded the prestigious $3 million Breakthrough Prize for Fundamental Physics. The prize, divided among the four major research groups working on the Large Hadron Collider, highlights the groundbreaking discoveries made at CERN, including the identification of the Higgs boson particle. The award underscores the vital contributions of thousands of scientists working collaboratively to unravel the mysteries of the universe.

On the frontier of technology, researchers at the Public University of Navarra in Spain have made strides towards creating interactive holograms that can be manipulated with bare hands. This advancement brings us closer to experiencing immersive holographic displays akin to the holodeck from Star Trek. The research, published in the open archive HAL, showcases the potential for interactive holograms to revolutionize user interfaces and virtual experiences.

In the commercial space sector, a new report from venture firm Space Capital highlights the challenges faced by space-related stocks in the first quarter of 2025. Despite setbacks, the industry saw over $4.3 billion in investments, indicating continued interest and growth potential. Emerging players like Blue Origin are poised to increase competition and innovation in the space industry.

In the realm of science and technology, exciting developments are underway. Forbes released its annual list of the top 50 AI startups, showcasing innovative companies driving advancements in artificial intelligence. Engineers at MIT have developed an insect-sized robot capable of jumping, opening up possibilities for agile robotic exploration in challenging terrains. Additionally, researchers are exploring alternatives to harmful “forever chemicals” like PFAS, with promising chemical approaches for non-toxic substitutes.

From advancements in healthcare to AI biases in decision-making, the intersection of science and technology continues to shape our future. As we navigate the complexities of innovation, it’s essential to stay informed and engaged with the latest developments in the field. Let your mind wander, embrace new discoveries, and explore the endless possibilities that science and technology offer.
