Noah Haggerty

Science & Environment Journalist

I’m an environment, health and science reporter at The Los Angeles Times. As a feature writer, I aim to explore the complex issues facing our generation that demand smart, creative solutions and teach us to view the world in a new way.

Before entering the world of journalism, I conducted research on spacecraft propulsion, fusion energy and plasma — the stuff that makes up lightning and the sun. With a background in physics, I work to uncover the core mechanics that define any given topic.

I first joined The Times as a 2024 AAAS Mass Media Fellow. I served as the editor-in-chief as Northeastern University’s student-run science magazine NU Sci Magazine and the deputy editor for Northeastern’s Science Media Lab.
