Following a PhD in plasma-astrophysics, Hilde Stenuit joined Space Applications Services.
After supporting operations for spacecraft and International Space Station research experiments, she did science coordination for ISS as part of the ESA ISS Mission Science Office for more than a decade.
Now, she is using her expertise for business development and in support of the users of the ICE Cubes program.

Mauro Ricci obtained a master degree in Aeronautic Engineering from University of Pisa, Italy.
He has a long term experience in the Aerospace Industry, including Payload development projects (PK-4, ICAPS Experiment,…), system engineering and requirements tailoring.
He is also in charge of the ICE Cubes project management, covering the coordination of sub-contractors and the system team including system engineering and business aspects.

“After completing a Master’s Degree of Engineering in Physics at the University of Liege, Belgium, Patrick Laport joined Space Applications Services and moved to Houston, Texas, to help design the cockpit of the X38 / Crew Return Vehicle at the NASA Johnson Space Center. At the end of the X38 project, Patrick established Aerospace Applications North America, Space Applications Services’s subsidiary in the US, and quickly got involved with the design and prototyping of NASA’s Orion spacecraft cockpit. While working on Orion, Patrick competed a Master’s Degree in Business Administration at the University of Houston in Clear Lake, Texas. Patrick is now using his engineering and business experience to promote ICE Cubes in the USA.”
