Andrea Muciaccia

From 2022, I am a PhD student at the Politecnico di Milano as part of the COMPASS group, under the supervision of Prof. Camilla Colombo. As part of my research, I am developing and implementing a metric to assess the impact of a space mission on the space environment and the characterisation of a capacity concept to regulate the sustainability of the space. In addition, I am also investigating methodologies devoted to characterise and reconstruct in-orbit fragmentations.  

Current research within COMPASS

  • Fragmentation reconstruction
  • Investigation of the impact of space mission on the space environment
  • Mission analysis

Other research

  • Technology Demo Mission for Deployable Surface-Based Debris Monitoring (DSBDM)
  • Design, development and deployment of software infrastructure to assess the impact of a space mission on the space environment
