Brilliant Minds: Mini Portrait of Francesco Castellini
Francesco Castellini was fascinated right from early childhood by the concept of traveling into space and discovering distant worlds. He became a flight dynamics engineer and now works at the European Space Operations Center in Darmstadt, Germany. There he deals with all the calculations for flight maneuvers by space probes, for example. Right now he's mainly working on the Rosetta mission. His next project will be ExoMars - a scientific satellite scheduled to land on Mars. The 32-year-old Italian scientist has fulfilled his childhood dream.
