Can you give us a rough sense of scale of how the $1 million from the KickStarter compares to the other costs required to bring to completion 1) everything promised in the KickStarter, and 2) their first satellite in space capable of scoping out NEOs?

The $1M isn't going toward the cost of the satellite - they're already building those for their primary mission.

This is to pay for the launch of an extra one, that has little to do with their core mission of asteroid prospecting, and everything to do with inspiring and educating.

From my understanding, the $1M pays for a launch. They have already developed (or are still developing) the telescope satellite. If they exceed $1M, they may launch multiple satellites.
