Rene Laufer is Professor and Head of the Space Systems Group, Chair at Luleå University of Technology in Kiruna, North Sweden and is a respected expert on all matters relating to small satellites and lunar exploration. But he has a secret passion for science fiction, from which he draws many inspirations for his scientific work.
