At Space Camp Valencia 2025, we believe that the best way to inspire is to connect our young people with those who are already making aerospace history. That's why, this year, we are launching a program with mentors and ambassadors who will accompany our participants during their experience, sharing their knowledge, trajectory and passion for space.
🚀 Our ambassadors: inspirational role models
Raul Torres - CEO and co-founder of PLD Space
Although we talked about it recently, Raúl is an industrial engineer and one of the driving forces behind the first Spanish reusable launcher, the MIURA 1. He leads PLD Space, a pioneer in Europe in the development of reusable rockets, and his vision has been key to bringing the space industry closer to new generations.
Marta Blanco - Director of the project Fuera de Órbita
A science communicator and space enthusiast, Marta is the director of Out of Orbit, a project that seeks to bring science and space exploration closer to the general public, especially young people.
Doctor Fission - Science and technology communicator
Known for his close and didactic style, Doctor Fission is a reference in the scientific dissemination in social networks, where he explains complex physics and technology concepts in an accessible and entertaining way.
Josep Calatayud - Aerospace engineer and broadcaster of the Mission Control channel.
Engineer specialized in space systems and creator of the channel Mission Control, where he shares content on aerospace engineering, space missions and technology, encouraging scientific vocations among young people.
🧭 Mentors: expert support for each mission
In addition to our ambassadors, Space Camp 2025 will have a team of mentors formed by students of the degrees in Aerospace Engineering and Telecommunications Engineering of the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV). Their technical training and enthusiasm for the space sector makes them approachable role models for the younger participants.
These mentors will be present in the different activities of the camp, offering guidance during the workshops, helping with challenges and sharing their academic and vocational experience. Their role is key to create a motivating environment in which attendees can learn, ask questions and grow accompanied by those who, in a short time, will be an active part of the space industry.
