In the framework of the H2020 Stardust-R project, I am performing camera hardware-in-the-loop test for autonomous line-of-sight navigation for CubeSats @ DART Lab

Frascati, Lazio (Italia)

I performed thermal analysis using C&R Thermal Desktop, focusing on the mechanical and thermal role of each component of the studied satellites.I took part to the design process of a pyroshock test device and I have been in charge of performing vibration test with a shaker.

Frascati, Lazio, Italia

I wrote my M.Sc. thesis titled 'Thermal analysis of the next-generation laser retroreflector payloads for advanced space applications', based on 3D design, modelling and thermal analysis of satellites equipped with laser retroreflector arrays for Satellite Laser Ranging.Moreover, I participated in optical incoming tests on Cube Corner Retroreflectors and I developed the statistic study of the optical test for spherical satellite equipped with CCRs.

I wrote my B.Sc. thesis 'Mapping and Georeferencing of Lunar Landing Sites', in which I analyzed data obtained from cameras and laser altimeter of Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. I developed a systematic procedure in mapping and georeferencing lunar landing sites of the NASA missions Apollo (11, 12, 14, 15 & 16) and of the soviet missions Lunokhod 1 and 2, exploring the functionalities of the NASA’s LMMP (Lunar Mapping and Modelling Portal).Moreover, I tested the beta version, with customized… Show more I wrote my B.Sc. thesis 'Mapping and Georeferencing of Lunar Landing Sites', in which I analyzed data obtained from cameras and laser altimeter of Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
