Welcome to my site about Andreas Mogensen.

This site is not Andreas Mogensens official site.

Andreas Mogensen is a Danish engineer and astronaut. He was born in Copenhagen. In Denmark he worked as an engineer in the R&D department of Vestas Wind Systems. He has been working in Germany as an attitude and orbit control system and guidance, navigation & control engineer for HE Space Operations associated with the SWARM mission. His position when he was selected by ESA was Aerospace Engineering at Surrey Space Centre, University of Surrey. He also lives in England.

Mogensen was selected to become the first Danish astronaut by the European Space Agency in May 2009. He completed initial training and became a member of the European Astronaut Corps in November 2010.
On 10 June 2014, NASA announced that Mogensen would serve as an aquanaut aboard the Aquarius underwater laboratory during the NEEMO 19 undersea exploration mission, which began on 7 September 2014 and lasted seven days.
