COMPASS PoliMi

Come evitare che lo spazio cislunare sviluppi problemi di congestione come l’orbita terrestre? 🚀 Su #Frontiere, Mathilda Bolis, dottoranda #DAER al @COMPASS_polimi Lab, parla di sostenibilità spaziale, traiettorie e fine vita dei satelliti. 👉aero.polimi.it/it/magazine/ma… @ASI_spazio

🚀Check out our new paper @daer_polimi @polimi published in Acta Astronautica by Wiebke Retagne and @camilla_colombo! We investigate how planned mega-constellations and economic trends are shaping the number of objects in orbit doi.org/10.1016/j.acta… @ERC_Research #GREENSPECIES

Alessandro Scalvini (COMPASS, @polimi) attended #EuroGNC2026 in Madrid with @ESA__Education support! His paper was a Marc Pélegrin Best Paper Finalist 🏆 (@ceasairspace/@ISAE_officiel/@onera_en award) — and he co-chaired the Spacecraft Navigation session! #GNC

🌍📡 COMPASS at the 5th IAA Conference on Space Situational Awareness (ICSSA 2026) in Madrid The COMPASS group, @daer_polimi and @polimi, recently contributed to ICSSA 2026, a key event addressing the technical and policy challenges of Space Situational Awareness.

Alessandro Scalvini from the COMPASS Lab @daer_polimi @polimi received an @ESA__Education Student Sponsorship to attend #CEAS #EuroGNC 2026! Congratulation Alessandro, and see you in Madrid!🚀

Martina Rusconi, #PhD candidate in our Lab at @daer_polimi @polimi, is currently a visiting PhD at @esa #ESTEC, working on #SpaceDebris mitigation within the @ERC_Research-funded #GREENSPECIES project and contributing to the #THEMIS debris index. Congratulations Martina!🚀

Excited to welcome Margherita to the COMPASS Lab @polimi as a new PhD candidate! She will work on developing the THEMIS framework and its applications to space policy. Great to have you on board! #COMPASSLab #SpaceResearch #PhDlife #SpaceSustainability
