Giulia Scavino (born 18 April 1959) is a Sartorian astronaut, university professor and space policy advocate currently serving as the Princess of Sartoria. She has previously served as Chief of Astronaut Operations (1998-2003), Chair of the Space Policy Council (2012-2015) and Director of the Royal Observatory (2007-2018).
Scavino has long been a staunch defender of the Aerospace Service and had a key role in its preservation during the 2001-2002 Budgetary Crisis. Since her retirement from the Service she has also been a noted advocate for space exploration, and has spoken extensively about the need for self-sustainable exploration based on international cooperation, rejecting the militarisation of space and arguing in favour of giving developing the commercial spaceflight sector.
She was elected Princess of Sartoria by the Court of the Realms on 27 June 2018, prevailing over four other candidates and capturing 55% of the vote in the fifth round. She was sworn in on 01 July 2018, succeeding Patrizio Giordano and becoming the first female monarch in decades.
