<p><strong>Katalyst Description:</strong></p>

<p>Katalyst is an American technology company&nbsp;focused on dynamic space operations.&nbsp;&nbsp;We are building a fleet of&nbsp;dual-use multipurpose&nbsp;robotic space vehicles&nbsp;to&nbsp;create the&nbsp;future where maneuvering, upgrading, refueling,&nbsp;resupply&nbsp;and exploration are as routine as they are on Earth. Getting to space and overcoming the gravity well is only half the story. What you do there is the future. We are not building the trains. We are building the machines that lay down the tracks. By developing the foundational capabilities that make sustained, responsive operations possible, we enable a new era of space&nbsp;exploration&nbsp;that strengthens national security and ensures freedom of action in an increasingly contested domain.<br><br></p>
