Astronomer co-founder Pete DeJoy has stepped in to the role of interim CEO following Andy Byron's resignation in disgrace. Byron was caught on the "kiss cam" at a Coldplay concert last week, cozying up to Astronomer head of HR Kristin Cabot.

The controversy triggered $2.4 million in total trading volumes on Kalshi, marking one of the most traded cultural events on prediction markets.

Astronomer's interim CEO Pete DeJoy said in an update that the startup had "received a level of media attention that few companies" ever encounter.

Kristin Cabot, caught in a viral embrace with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, appears to be married to Privateer Rum founder Andrew Cabot, a member of a prominent Boston family.
