Lugo Leaves USF to Lead International Space Station Operations

Ray Lugo of UCF has been named president and chief operating officer at the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space, which manages operations of the International Space Station. Lugo has led the Florida Space Institute, which is based at UCF, for the past 8 years.

“I have had the great honor of serving the university that set me forth on this journey,” Lugo says. “UCF/FSI is well positioned to continue its ascension to lead a space mission. I’ll miss UCF/FSI, but I am sure our paths will cross sooner rather than later.”
