About
REACCH is Kall Morris Inc’s exclusive, mechanically articulated end effector combining previously validated technologies with mechanical gecko adhesion to enable soft, secure capture of objects in space. Most orbital debris is uncontrolled and unprepared for capture, so REACCH is designed for non-destructive securing and selective release of objects of nearly any shape, size, or surface condition — making it a multi-use, multi-capture solution applicable across a wide variety of debris removal, orbit change, and end-of-life servicing missions.
