With a fiscal year 2022 budget of $8.8 billion, NSF funds reach all 50 states through grants to nearly 2,000 colleges, universities and institutions. as a global leader in research and innovation. NSF supports research and people by providing facilities, instruments and funding to support their ingenuity and sustain the U.S. National Science Foundation propels the nation forward by advancing fundamental research in all fields of science and engineering. It is the result of over 20 years of work by the CERN antimatter community. This achievement features technological developments that open up a completely new era in high-precision antimatter research. The NSF-funded ALPHA collaboration reports the first-ever measurement on the optical spectrum of an antimatter atom (an atom in which the component particles' electrical charges are reversed).
