Victoria Cripps (Vicki) is a Quality Engineer in the Space Plasma Physics research program at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF) in Uppsala. With over a decade of experience at IRF, she has worked as Product Assurance and/or Project Manager, developing scientific instruments for ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE), Solar Orbiter and Comet Interceptor missions.
At Rymdforum 2025, Vicki will give an overview of IRF’s involvement in two of the three candidate missions in the ESA ‘medium-class’ call M7, M-MATISSE and Plasma Observatory.
In addition to the Rymdforum conference from May 4th to 6th, the entire week will be filled with space-themed activities, lectures, music and entertainment for both residents and visitors. This Space Week will in many ways enhance both Trollhättan and Sweden’s standing in this field.
