Viking Acquisition Corp. I, a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by KingsRock Advisors, completed its business combination with NorthStar Earth & Space Inc. on September 30, 2026. The combined company, renamed NorthStar Earth & Space Enterprises, Inc., began trading on NYSE American on October 1 under the ticker symbols "NSTR" for common shares and "NSTR.WS" for public warrants, transferring its listing from the New York Stock Exchange.
NorthStar describes itself as a global leader in Space Situational Awareness (SSA) and Space Domain Awareness (SDA), offering information services that identify and anticipate the positions of objects in orbit. The company is headquartered in Montreal, with a European headquarters in Luxembourg and US operations in New York.
The transaction gives NorthStar public-market access as satellite operators and other space-industry customers look for tools to track the growing population of objects in orbit and manage collision risk amid increasing congestion in space.
Financial terms of the business combination were not disclosed in the companies' announcement.
