Michal Czapski - Crew EngineerMichal Czapski is a graduate of Technical Physics at Poznan University of Technology in Poland and of Erasmus Mundus program with Material Science major at two European universities: University of Rennes 1 in France and Munich Technical University in Germany. He did research for his final thesis at Kyoto University in Japan working on negative thermal expansion in a group of ceramic materials. This experience brought him to CERN, where he got the Early Stage Researcher position to work on developing ceramic materials. His fascination with space came during the winter science course in Kiruna, Sweden where he went to watch and study the northern lights. Motivated by the lecturers of the the Space campus in Kiruna he applied and got accepted to Space Studies Program 2014 at International Space University. In his free time he is a passionate scuba-diver. His other water hobbies include sailing, swimming or surfing. He has also interest in film making, directing and acting.
