Kall Morris Inc. (KMI) was recently selected selected for the Orbital Edge Accelerator cohort with the firm’s Asteria, semi-permanent, on-orbit adhesive technology—KMI was selected as one of six companies out of over 190 that applied for this project.
This cohort provides a means to further advance the Asteria technology, a critical component of the company’s innovation portfolio, with the support of space experts, top investors, and business mentors, and will support a future exclusive opportunity to test our technology aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
The Orbital Edge Accelerator is made possible by the International Space Station National Laboratory (ISSNL), partnering with TechConnect, in collaboration with global investors Cook Inlet Region, Inc. (CIRI), E2MC Ventures, and Stellar Ventures.
Companies within the KMI cohort include: Magma Space, Melagen Labs, Olfera, Quantum Qool, and Raptor Dynamix.
Carrying forward from our previous success of demonstrating our REACCH technology on the ISS, KMI is extremely excited to move forward with the Orbital Edge program and related teams to further demonstrate our Asteria hardware in space and showcase even further capabilities to support in tandem,” said KMI Co-Founder and Director of Engineering, Austin Morris. “We are grateful to the Orbital Edge team for this opportunity and excited to begin work together.”
