But there is one thing that remains constant: her burning passion for space. I used to borrow all the books on science. I was particularly struck by a story about Marie Curie told by her daughter. At that precise moment, she made her decision: she too would become a scientist. But in the field of space. A teacher who would later become One experience made a particular impression on her:.
We were known as "astronauts in jeans"! It was fantastic. I had five screens in front of me and I had to stay focused while bottles of champagne were being opened all around me! I thought, why not? In her new role, she has discovered a passion for teaching, and more particularly for supporting students. After defending her thesis in , she began supervising doctoral and post-doctoral students. At the time, we knew nothing about the research environment, but our paper was selected for an international conference.
The laboratory is interested in orbital systems, future space transportation and robotic and human space exploration in a future of more than 15 years. This is yet another accolade for this enthusiast, who is just one experience away from being fulfilled: space travel. I went as far as the psycho-technical tests Its main areas of research are: in-orbit servicing space rendezvous, trajectory optimisation, quantification and propagation of uncertainties ; space debris monitoring and mitigation, particularly in cislunar environments; advanced space transportation reusable launch vehicles, space propulsion, refuelling in space and fuel storage ; robotic and human space exploration optimisation of interplanetary trajectories to the Moon, Mars, Phobos, Enceladus and asteroids; AI for autonomously and distributed systems; eco-design of lunar bases; characterisation of the impact of isolation and confinement on crew performance.
The environmental and societal impact of space missions is a theme that cuts across all research projects. The Academy is based in Toulouse and is made up of French and foreign Members and Correspondents who hold, or have held, major responsibilities in their respective fields related to aeronautics and space.
They represent a unique pool of knowledge in Europe, with the aim of encouraging and promoting the development of high-quality scientific, technical, cultural and human activities in the fields of Air and Space.
