==Education==
Hadarou Sare has a bachelor's degree in Planetary Geology and a Master's in Planetary Science from SUNY University in Buffalo, New York. He also has a bachelor's in science and technology and a Master's in Geoinformatics from the University of Ouaga. He started his PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering where he was working on the Design, Modeling, Dynamics, and Control of an autonomous robotic spacecraft for in-space optical mining without excavation. Hadarou also previously worked as a teaching assistant during his graduate career.
==NASA==
At NASA, Hadarou has been working on multiple technologies with NASA's Solar System Exploration Division, the Mechanical and System Division, and the Mission Engineering and System Analysis. At NASA GSFC, he has recently been working to deepen one of the technologies he invented for in-space asteroid mining without excavation. Prior to that work, he was involved in the selection of the best landing site for the Mars 2020 Rover Mission where he created special algorithms and used them to identify biomarkers in the Nili Fossae region (Mars). His work related to that mission is entitled "Implication of Fractures in Identifying Potential Area of Life on Mars: Cartography of Mineralogy in Nili Fossae, Mars". He also worked with his team at NASA (the Planetary Defense Group) to propose a strategy for protecting our planet from space-based threats. With the Planetary Defense Group, he was mainly proposing a technological strategy for a space-based threat mitigation. His work related to that mission is entitled "SBAG Goal 2: Defend Planet Earth". Hadarou is currently working to develop an innovative and autonomous robotic spacecraft for in-space asteroid mining.
