In recent years European Rover Challenge saw such people as Dr Harrison Schmitt – the last person to have walked on the Moon, and Prof. Scott Hubbard – former director of NASA Ames. Take a look at a list of impressive space icons who will come to Starachowice this year:
- Tim Peake, the first British ESA astronaut who worked in the International Space Station,
- Maria Antonietta Perino, head of Advanced Exploration Programs at Thales Alenia Space,
- Gianfranco Visentin, head of Automation and Robotics section at European Space Agency,
