La Luna, il Caos e la mia cassetta degli attrezzi | Walther Litteri | TEDxGiarre

Space is a complex and sometimes chaotic system, governed by the gravitational pull between planets, moons, and other celestial bodies. Satellites move like small boats in an invisible sea, exploiting gravitational forces like sailors seeking favorable currents and winds. But planning a trajectory in space means choosing, from infinite possibilities, the one best suited to the mission. In this talk, Walther Litteri shows how generative AI can help us explore these trajectories and navigate the complexity of space.

In 2023, he earned a master's degree with honors in Space Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Milan and a Diplôme d'Ingénieur from ISAE-SUPAERO in Toulouse. He is also pursuing a master's degree in Economics and Political Science at the University of Milan. His research focuses on the use of generative Artificial Intelligence methods for trajectory optimization, with applications to the dynamics of the Earth-Moon system. His interests include nonlinear dynamical systems, chaos in celestial mechanics, and many-body astrodynamics. Alongside his scientific research, he is interested in the economic and political implications, sustainability, and governance of space activities. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
