Space Team Europe for Ariane 6: Sergi Inglada

Video: 00:08:43

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. Sergi Inglada, Control Bench Technical Manager for GTD, 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.

Sergi has been interested in space ever since he was a child and studied engineering at INSA in Rennes, France. After discovering the dynamism, operations, diversity and technology at Europe’s Spaceport he started working at Spanish company GTD that is involved in many aspects of Ariane 6, from ventilation to software and from modelling to aerodynamics and environmental security systems.

As control bench technician Sergi works on the servers that nobody sees that are the brain of Ariane 6: 20 servers, 50 workstations, 50 km of optical fibres to connect them all.
