Paolo Nespoli, per aspera ad astra

A multi-faceted man. You could summarise thus the story of Paolo Nespoli, born in Milan under the sign of Aries on 6 April 1957.  First a serviceman, then an engineer, and finally an astronaut, he is today a refined and cultured scientific populariser and a sensitive, illuminated writer, able to tap into the anxieties of young people, like in his 2022 novel "L'unico giorno giusto per arrendersi".

Look up is the podcast of the Italian Space Agency that tells the characters and exploits of the great space adventure.
