They say it takes a village to raise a child. To launch a rocket, we have the combined expertise and passion of Space Team Europe. Alexis Van Lysebeth is one of many making the first Ariane 6 launch possible and has been interviewed as part of a series highlighting some of the people that make up this dream team.
Working for Belgian company SABCA, Alexis is part of the team supplying the actuation systems for Ariane 6. The actuators have been upgraded for Ariane 6 and will be electromechanical – meaning electiricy is used to turn them on
