First launch: Not announced

Space-based development to include enhancing LEO/GEO launch capabilities, Space Based Solar Power (SBSP), Asteroid Mining Systems, planetary mining and resource development, orbital robotics and cubesat development, space debris cleanup and human space colonization.

KESE LLC Automated Mining System (AMS) also dubbed "Cornucopia" for the mythical "Horn of Plenty" (see https://www.facebook.com/cornucopiam) is currently in design-phase and will capable to return several metric tons of asteroid regolith to LEO for manufacturing space vehicles and habitats in space using these space materials, free from the exacting weight, design and robustness constraints of current rocket launches. This project will provide a continuous stream of raw materials from asteroids to LEO, which will enable the manufacturing of all the futuristic space project designs that are now only in science fiction. With AMS this can be done now, not 10-20 years from now, using today's tech from existing space-proven hardware and designs. AMS will be equipped with several different camera systems and a star observation / navigation system and the feed from these systems will be made available on line via the Internet to the entire world.

KESE LLC Alternative Energy development initiatives include solar power and especially space-based solar power (SBSP), deep well geothermal, biomass, wave power generation, wind power generation and development of new hydrogen power sources.

KESE LLC also offers a number of General Engineering Services including assistance with prototype design, feasibility studies, business plans, marketing plans, development planning tools, drone mapping and 3D model builds. By combining powerful GIS, 3D printing and GPS drone mapping software programs as well as remote drone data collection technologies we can provide a thorough understanding of a geographic area in order to minimize the unknowns in developmental decision making.
