About Perigee Science Wire
Translating breakthrough science into decision-ready insights
Bridging Science and Society
Perigee Science Wire was founded on a simple principle: breakthrough science shouldn't be locked behind academic jargon. Every day, researchers publish findings that could change industries, inform policy, and spark innovation—but most of this knowledge never reaches the people who need it most.
We bridge that gap. Our Japan-based, English-language platform delivers concise, verified coverage of discoveries, space exploration, and AI research. Each story is translated by domain experts into plain language without sacrificing scientific rigor, then paired with visual data stories that make complex information instantly understandable.
Expert Verification Process
Every piece of content we publish follows a rigorous verification process. Our AI-powered translation tools provide the first draft, converting dense academic papers into plain-language summaries. Then, domain experts review each explainer for accuracy, context, and completeness.
We include methodology breakdowns, real-world applications, and expert commentary—giving you not just the what, but the why and how. Our editorial team includes scientists, researchers, and experienced science communicators who ensure every story meets our standards for accuracy and clarity.
Comprehensive Coverage Across Disciplines
We operate on a freemium model designed to serve multiple audiences. Our open news briefings keep researchers, journalists, and curious minds current on the latest breakthroughs. Premium subscribers gain access to deep-dive analysis reports, full visual data stories, and our curated research summaries API.
Beyond individual readers, we license classroom-ready modules for educators, provide newsroom content packages for media organizations, and deliver lab-to-market insights for industry leaders. Our sponsorships come exclusively from research labs and technology firms aligned with our editorial mission, ensuring our coverage remains independent and trustworthy.
From Lab to Impact
We track research from initial discovery through to real-world application. Our 2025 space exploration coverage provides real-time updates on missions that are expanding humanity's reach into the cosmos, while our AI research section examines how machine learning is transforming scientific investigation itself.
Every story includes context about potential applications, funding sources, and timeline to impact. We help you understand not just what researchers have discovered, but what it means for your field, your industry, or your curiosity about the world.
Editorial Philosophy
We believe science journalism should be measured, clear, and curious. No sensationalism, no clickbait—just reliable information presented with the respect it deserves. Our design reflects this philosophy: deep navy and solar orange colors, clean typography, and minimalist orbital motifs that convey both precision and exploration.
Our commitment to accuracy means we correct errors promptly and transparently. We distinguish between peer-reviewed findings, preprint research, and preliminary results. We cite sources, link to original papers, and provide context about study limitations and methodology. When scientific consensus shifts, we update our coverage to reflect the current state of knowledge.
