Dr. Daniel Portnoy
Chief Scientist
Daniel is a senior space scientist with more than 30 years of experience in many space engineering disciplines: space image processing, thermal control calculations, mission program and analysis, space system simulations, payload integration and energy managing.
Daniel holds a PhD in astrophysics and BSc in Aerospace Engineering, this formation allows to Daniel to deal with extremally complexed problems related with space science, such as satellite maneuver algorithms.
His work focuses on spacecraft systems engineering, satellite orbital mechanics, Bayesian statistics, and remote sensing, as well as the impact of the space environment and space weather on mission design.
His work focuses on spacecraft mission evaluation and feasibility study, mission program and scientific mission analysis, including orbital mechanics and thermal analysis and control.
