Astronomer has addressed the Coldplay concert scandal involving CEO Andy Byron and HR chief Kristin Cabot. The company confirmed a formal investigation. Both Byron and Cabot have been placed on leave as discussions about Byron's resignation continue.

A "kiss cam" moment at a Coldplay concert has gone viral after the band's lead singer, Chris Martin, joked about a possible affair. The band was playing a July 16 concert at Gillette Stadium in Boston when a man and woman dancing together during the show were shown on the stadium's Jumbotron.

In a brief statement, the tech company also said another Astromer employee, Alyssa Stoddard, was not at the concert.
