 * Keep. I think the probable new head of the entire European Space Agency  is notable ex officio (and probably also via WP:PROF). His honorary membership in European Academy of Sciences and Arts also suggests the possibility of WP:PROF, and his citation counts, while not strong, are borderline for WP:PROF. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:16, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep, per David Eppstein's excellent points above on the PROF criteria. He also plausibly passes GNG, google news has several pages of results though I did not assess the quality of those.-- Eostrix  (&#x1F989; hoot hoot&#x1F989;) 06:31, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
