Neapolitan by birth and Federiciano by scientific education, after graduating in Physics Fabio Peluso immediately embarked on the career that has led him to deal with space and microgravity, develop a theoretical model of liquids, confirmed by numerous experimental evidence, and develop a thermal-mechanical model of the Campi Flegrei Caldera. He has been a university lecturer. He is the author of numerous articles on theoretical and experimental physics and the holder of two international patents for space equipment.
Profound connoisseur of the mechanisms that come into play in space experiments on fluids carried out in the virtual absence of gravity, Fabio Peluso was responsible for the "microgravity" working group of the MARS Center, the director of the MARS laboratory, responsible for the development of numerous ground-based and space projects (Pilex, TRUMP, TRUE, T-EC, GLOBE, and READI-FP), many of which dedicated to the study of liquids and that bear his signature not only as a scientist, but also as the team leader of the designers.
He participated in the most relevant phases of the preparation of the International Space Station, in particular of the European Columbus laboratory.
Last in order of time among the experiments in which Peluso participated is READI-FP, a biology experiment aimed to study the behavior of bone cells in microgravity, with obvious fall-down on the daily life of each of us.
