This will be accomplished by launching a miniature spacecraft towards a target that generates a static magnetic field. A set of actively-controlled magnetic coils onboard the spacecraft, assisted by dedicated localization sensors, will be used to control its attitude and position relative to the target. External cameras will be used to monitor the experiment during the tests in low gravity.<\/p>\n<p>The Parabolic flight campaign for the PACMAN experiment has been launched in Autumn 2017.<\/p>\n<p><em>Endorsing Professors:\u00a0Prof. Alessandro Francesconi, Prof. Angelo Cenedese, Prof. Enrico Lorenzini<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Research-Unit Student Participants: Matteo Duzzi (PhD st.), Mattia Mazzucato (PhD st.), Riccardo Casagrande (MS st.), Matteo Vitturi (MS st.), Fabrizio Vitellino (MS st.), Filippo Trevisi (MS st.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dei.unipd.it\/\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-575\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SPARCS-300x283.png\" width=\"85\" height=\"80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SPARCS-300x283.png 300w, https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SPARCS-768x724.png 768w, https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SPARCS-1024x966.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 85px) 100vw, 85px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-577\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DEI.png\" width=\"124\" height=\"80\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/ssg.dii.unipd.it\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-580\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SSG-300x185.png\" width=\"129\" height=\"80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SSG-300x185.png 300w, https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SSG-768x475.png 768w, https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SSG-348x215.png 348w, https:\/\/sparcs.dei.unipd.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/SSG.png 809w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 129px) 100vw, 129px\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-584\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DII.png\" width=\"241\" height=\"80\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/Education\/Fly_Your_Thesis\">ESA Fly Your Thesis programme<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/Education\/Fly_Your_Thesis\/Meet_the_teams_PACMAN\">The PACMAN Experiment<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"csColumnGap\" style=\"margin: 0px;
