Dual-Quaternion GNC for Interplanetary Mission
Spacecraft GNC has traditionally treated rotation and translation as separate problems: attitude is parameterized by a unit quaternion evolving under q̇ = ½ q ⊗ ω, while translation is a Cartesian vector evolving under Newton's law. For decoupled tasks this is adequate, but for coupled six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) maneuvers — rendezvous, proximity operations, or a thrust-vector hold in which the body pointing and the orbital position must be commanded jointly — the separation forces hand-written cross-coupling terms and duplicated bookkeeping.

Emanuele Magno
I'm an Aerospace Engineering student, aerospace enthusiast, and software developer passionate about designing intelligent systems for space exploration.
My interests focus on Guidance, Navigation & Control (GNC), spacecraft dynamics, orbital mechanics, autonomous aerospace systems, and scientific simulation. I enjoy developing engineering software that combines physics, mathematics, and programming to solve complex aerospace challenges.
In my free time, I build aerospace simulation projects, explore advanced control algorithms, contribute to personal software projects, practice Kung Fu, fly drones for aerial photography, and continuously expand my knowledge through research and hands-on experimentation.
IMPACTOne equation to move through space. Rotation and translation, finally speaking the same language.
We didn't prove it on paper. We flew it to Duna — and held the orbit.

FOCUSGuidance, Navigation & Control · Orbital Simulation
Researcher focused on guidance, navigation and control, orbital mechanics simulation and
autonomous systems. My work covers trajectory optimization, real-time flight software and
high-fidelity simulation for spacecraft and CubeSat platforms. I believe in systems that behave
the same way in simulation and in flight.
