“From my first encyclopedia page to orbit dynamics, curiosity has always been my propulsion system”
I didn’t understand orbits, quaternions, or attitude control back then.
I just knew the moon felt like something I wanted to keep looking at.
Knowledge Base

Fundamental of Space
Basic concepts to understand space, motion, ,coordinate systems including physics and mathematics .
AODCS
An overview of how satellites determine their position and orientation, and how they maintain stability and control in space.
Satellite Systems
Overview of the main subsystems that make up a satellite, including power, communication, thermal, and onboard computing. .
Portofolio
an ADCS engineer/researcher in the making—from early experiments in control systems and spacecraft dynamics.
Simulation and Coding
Here, I share the simulations, models, and coding workflows that support my research in spacecraft attitude and orbit dynamics
Space Mission and Agency
This section is where I collect stories about the world’s most inspiring space missions and the agencies behind them.
ascensiorecta
AscensioRecta is my personal space where I write simple notes about what I’m learning in aerospace, from basic ideas to deeper concepts. It’s a small archive of my thoughts, my progress, and the little things that inspire me along the way.
Satellite ADCS
- In simple terms, ADCS is what keeps a satellite stable, properly oriented, and facing the right direction. Whether it’s pointing a camera toward Earth, aligning solar panels with the Sun, or maintaining a specific attitude in orbit, ADCS makes it possible.
- This blog explores ADCS in a simplified and structured way—breaking down concepts, sharing notes, and documenting the process of understanding how spacecraft stay oriented in the vastness of space.
Social Media
- On social media, I also share knowledge, but in a lighter and shorter form. It’s more about quick insights, visuals, and small ideas—while the full explanations and deeper understanding live here on the blog.
“I grew up watching the sky.
Now I design systems that listen to it.”
