Biography
Dr. Leonard Felicetti is an Associate Senior Lecturer in On-board Space System in Luleå University of Technology. He is also the teacher of the courses “Spacecraft Subsystems” and “Spacecraft Environment Interactions” of the Master Degree programs on Space Science and Technology of Luleå University of Technology. He received his M.Sc. summa cum laude from Sapienza – University of Rome (Italy) in 2008 with a dissertation on the Attitude Dynamics and Control of a Cubesat implementing a Drag-Balance Instrument for measuring the Atmospheric Drag in Low Earth Orbit. In 2013, he received his Ph.D. on the “Dynamics, Guidance and Control of Multiple Platform Space Systems” and later, he was awarded a two-years post-doc grant at the Guidance and Navigation Lab of Sapienza - University of Rome for a study contract on the Active Debris Removal by using Space Robotic Manipulators. In 2015, he was an Honorary Research Associate at University of Glasgow for a research on the Attitude and Orbit Control Strategies for Variable-Geometry Solar Sailing.
