EUROAVIA News

“EUROAVIA has definitely influenced my attitude towards people”, says Nicola Cimmino, former IB member twice, who self-declared as a passionate about EUROAVIA. 

Nicola graduated from both, bachelor and master studies, in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Naples “Federico II” in Italy. During that period, he managed to complete an Erasmus programme in Spain and an internship in Ireland, experiences that allowed him to discover new countries, cultures and, as he remarks, friendly and warm people that made him fall in love with those countries, especially Spain. Right now, he’s working at the same University on a project related to satellites collision! 

"How we can do the best?" The query that mind-boggles our minds every day. How to transmit our principles, energy, confidence, our closeness to our members throughout a monitor? It is difficult, but not impossible.

Not even a pandemic can hold AS Pisa down!

Many cities in Italy are currently quarantined, and Pisa makes no exception. Nevertheless, last November we had a chance to visit the Virgo Interferometer... without leaving our homes!Researchers Valerio Boschi and Elena Fiori gave us an interesting introduction on gravitational waves and guided us in a virtual trip just outside Pisa, in the very building where the magic happens.

As the pandemic is challenging everyone, keeping us from meeting at the university or getting in touch with each other through local and international events, we, AS Forlì-Bologna, have started a new cycle of Online Conference Calls to entertain our members while teaching them about interesting aerospace topics.
