Bio - ir. Luc Vautmans, MSc.

° 07 January 1971 - married - 3 children.

Luc Vautmans is an academic civil engineer (Master in Engineering - KU Leuven) with specializations in energy conversion, nuclear techniques and aerospace design. Luc complemented his basic education with numerous additional courses in business administration, corporate finance, sales and leadership, including the Executive Development Program of the Boston Business School (Class of '11). Luc acts free(lance) as a sr. management consultant in aerospace (Executive Director Satellite Projects) to Asgardia & IARC.

Luc started his career in the space business, with Verhaert Space (the current QinetiQ Space) in Kruibeke. In +13 years Luc realized about 15 large projects for human spaceflight in close collaboration with ESA, NASA and the Russian space agency Roskosmos (POCKOCMOC), including the 5 major experiments that the Belgian astronaut Frank De Winne performed during his 2 space flights. Luc held successively posts as Project Manager, Contracts Manager, Head of Project Office (aerospace), General Manager Belgium (petro-chemical multinational) and CPMO for 2 sister companies (off-shore sector) and guided teams of  +200 employees.

In 2013, at the age of 42, Luc was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma after a routine examination; a very aggressive cancer, metastasized through more than 40 large tumors to various vital organs. The statistical prognosis on overall survival was 3 months with a survival probability of only 3%. That is now more than 5 years ago and it is expected that Luc will also bring his most important project to a successful conclusion. In the last 5 years since his diagnosis, Luc has made about +50 trips with the family, with each of the children separately and with some loyal friends: skydiving (skydiving) at exotic locations, skiing, paragliding, sailing and long solo journeys by motorcycle. Luc is convinced that our brain is a very good pharmacy for our body and called his modest therapy 'Adren@lpine' (Adrenaline + Alps). Luc documented his bucket list adventures in +90 edited videoclips for his children.

Luc is co-founder and board member of Melanoompunt.be (non-profit), the first patient organization in Belgium for melanoma patients and their next-of-kin and also Patient Advocate for the Melanoma Patient Network Europe (MPNE).

Luc is the president of Skydive Antwerp - Hoevenen (non profit), a skydive club with its own turbine aircraft and an annual turnover of + 200k€.

Luc likes good food, excellent wines, special beers, smart books and bad jokes.

My congratulations to Igor for becoming the first head of nation and to all Asgardians for this step and the next ones to come. I feel honored to have been a part of this historic event and I even met with Igor. It was an amazing moment within an even more amazing inauguration. Igor is a very polite and interesting person, it was very nice to have a short conversation with him.

Merhaba Asgardian arkadaşlar. Seninle olmaktan mutluyum. Ben bir keşif bilimcisiyim. Mesajım: dünyadaki ilk "kendimiz" olmalıyız! Doğal durumumuzdan ciddi bir çıkış var! Sonra evrensel bir rezonansa dönüşür. Yeni bir dünyaya sahip oluruz, bir boşluk!
aksi halde kirlilik taşırız!
Sevgi ve saygıyla ...

One of the seven wise; i will strive to my greatest ability to sacrifice my selfish needs to aid and prosper human kind. For this I shall build only one legacy, one that forgives all, one that peers into the soul and origin of being.

Crash through the veil, and be free.

This beautiful picture of Azuma Makoto's project to bring flowers into space is the best description of my Platform for my parliamentary candidateship.

As your representative I see it as my duty to strive for the common goal of establishing Asgardia as an independent nation with everything that is involved in that, to start with our basic need for oxygen, water and food.

As an independent nation we not only need a constitution, a flag, currency and other national symbols. An independent nation needs a secured supply of oxygen, water and food for its citizens. In my  parliamental work and efforts I will strive for the establishment of an Asgardian Ministery of Agriculture and Horticulture to meet this primary needs.

The ministry that will take care of the initiation and development of all necessary measures to guarantee a reliable supply of oxygene, water and healthy food is realized for the residents of Asgardia.

In order to survive in space Asgardia will take along plants to join man when he travels off our planet. Growing food and producing water and oxygen in space will be a critical technology to establish mankind and the Asgardian nation in space. A dedicated Ministry of Agriculure & Horticulture will have to take care of this critical resources as quickly as possible.

What I bring to Asgardia ?

In real life and as an innovation manager I am involved in the design, development and launch of nano-sats in closer cooperation with the European Space Agency. I am happy to make that experience available for future Asgardian space mission.

As private person I am a horticulturist growing my plants both outside and inside the house. I have a particular interest in greenhouses and controlled environments to let plants grow optimally

What you will get from my membership in parliament is also a lot of experience in initiating and developing complex projects and programmes like the Asgardian endeavor from aproject management point of view that I will use to bring our project ahead. .

I have experience as a representative throughout my career since high school (student board) and have initiated and managed a number of not-for profit associations, where I fulfilled board roles.

I speak English, Dutch, German and French and love to work in an international setting combining different cultures to work on a common goal.

If you would like to get to know me better please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments, or be-friend me here on Asgardia website.
