Exploring the “Cosmos” with Custom Wire

Cosmos


Here at Calmont, we have been working with NASA, JPL, the European Space Agency, Lockheed, L-3, and many other space exploration and aerospace organizations for many years. So you can imagine how excited we were to witness the reboot of one of the all-time great space exploration shows: “Cosmos: A Space Time Odyssey.”

Last Sunday, host Neil deGrasse Tyson picked up where science luminary and host of the original series Carl Sagan left off. Beginning with a discussion of our cosmic address, our relative place in the universe, Tyson then took viewers on a journey across time and space in the iconic Ship of the Imagination.

Combining breathtaking video and digital renderings of the cosmos and dramatizations of historical events, the series is introducing a whole new generation to the wonders of science and space exploration. We hope this show inspires more young people to pursue careers in science and technology, taking the human race to the next frontier and beyond. After all, we provide the wire that helps keep satellites in orbit; without new advances in space exploration, who would we provide custom wire to?

We could just imagine producing the custom wire for the Ship of the Imagination. With our aerospace wire – which provides reduced weight, increased strength, smaller gauge, flexibility, and purity – we have been outfitting aircraft, spacesuits, satellites, and other advanced aerospace equipment for years. And we couldn’t be prouder to contribute to the continuing advancement of human knowledge, at least in our own small way.
