In 2026, Karman+ will be flying ‘High Frontier’, our first mission to a near-Earth asteroid. We are focused on carbonaceous asteroids, both for their water content as well as for their physical composition. Our primary mission goal is to explore and test our excavation equipment and validate the feasibility of asteroid mining at scale.
We are considering the inclusion of 2 payload slots for instruments for on-board regolith analysis from the broader space community.
More details about our call for proposals can be found through this link.
