      My favourite project is the one I’m working on now – EIRSAT-1, Ireland’s first satellite. It’s cool to be working on something going to space, with a bunch of amazing students. It’s a dream come true really. We don’t necessarily know how to build a satellite, but we’re learning. And so every day is unexpected and fun!

      I enjoyed working on controlling flexible (wobbly) spacecraft, such as large space structures and launchers with sloshing fluids on board
