Adrian Fartade, classe 1987, si trasferisce adolescente dalla Romania nella provincia di Arezzo.
Born in 1987, Adrian Fartade moved as a teenager from Romania to the province of Arezzo, Italy. Graduating in History and Philosophy from the University of Siena with a focus on science and astronomy, he has been involved in science communication—particularly astronomy—since the early 2000s, starting with his YouTube channel, which currently boasts over 510,000 subscribers.
A frequent guest at theaters and festivals, his mission is to inspire even the most reluctant audiences to fall in love with knowledge, with a special focus on younger generations.
He has authored three books published by Rizzoli: A piedi nudi su Marte, viaggio nel Sistema Solare interno (Barefoot on Mars: A Journey into the Inner Solar System), published in 2018; Su Nettuno piovono diamanti (It Rains Diamonds on Neptune), released on March 12, 2019; and Come acchiappare un asteroide (How to Catch an Asteroid), his third title released on June 16, 2020. In October 2021, he also co-authored the book Apollo Credici (Apollo Believe It), a collaboration with Luca Perri and Leo Ortolani published by DeAgostini.
Beyond astronomy, he is dedicated to cause areas such as inclusion, feminism, and gender equality. He currently lives in Milan.
He will be at Lucca Comics & Games from October 30 to November 1st with Manga All Star – Isshoff.
