About

Hi!
I am a space engineer and astronomy enthusiast from Rho (Milan, Italy), and I am based in Guildford (UK).

I have an MSc in Space Engineering from Politecnico di Milano and a PhD in Astrodynamics from the Surrey Space Centre. My research dealt with approximate models of the gravitational field of small bodies and control laws enabling autonomous proximity operations.

I work as Attitude and Orbit Control System Engineer at Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd.

I enjoy playing music, coding and the outdoors.

You can find me on Twitter as @Astro_Andy or on LinkedIn.

You can also contact me directly via email at andy at andreaturconi dot eu.

See you around the Sun!
Andy
