Why did you choose this Masterclass?

I’ve chosen this programme because for me it seemed the next natural step in progressing my understanding of the outer space engineering world. As an aerospace engineer, I know the sky is not the limit and the outer space is the everyday proof of that. I work in the aviation sector, and many elements are now connected to space ( such as new drones flying at high altitude, space tourism, space traffic management, etc), and these elements are exciting for me. 

What was the most impressive lecture in your studies so far? And what were your key takeaways?

The most impressive talk was Mr. Wörner’s lecture on the Moon Village and all the elements that he summed up in his presentation. My key takeaways were about the importance of life support and how this system of systems ways of working is so interconnected that every participation, small or big, counts equally to make the Moon Village a reality. 

What are your personal goals you want to achieve with continuing education?

My personal goal is two-fold: on one hand, I would like to enhance my knowledge on space and on the other side to prepare myself to work on portfolios linked to higher altitude operations, which is in my activities sector.
