Albert Sacco (* 3. května 1949 Boston, Massachusetts, USA) je americký vědec a kosmonaut. Ve vesmíru byl jednou.
Život
Mládí a výcvik
V roce 1968 absolvoval střední školu Belmont Senior High School, roky 1968 až 1973 strávil na Northeastern University a roku 1977 zakončil svá studia na Massachusetts Institute of Technology v Cambridge získáním titulu PhD jako chemik inženýr.
Poté vyučoval mnoho let jako profesor na Worcester Polytechnic University. V týmu astronautů NASA byl v letech 1991 až 1995. Oženil se s Teran Lee, rozenou Gardnerovou a mají spolu čtyři děti.
Lety do vesmíru
Na oběžnou dráhu se v raketoplánu dostal jednou a strávil ve vesmíru 15 dní, 21 hodin a 34 minut. Byl 335 člověkem ve vesmíru.

The crew patch of STS-73, the second flight of the United States Microgravity Laboratory (USML-2), depicts the Space Shuttle Columbia in the vastness of space. In the foreground are the classic regular polyhedrons that were investigated by Plato and later Euclid. The Pythagoreans were also fascinated by the symmetrical three-dimensional objects whose sides are the same regular polygon. The tetrahedron, the cube, the octahedron, and the icosahedron were each associated with the Natural Elements of that time: fire (on this mission represented as combustion science); Earth (crystallography), air and water (fluid physics). An additional icon shown as the infinity symbol was added to further convey the discipline of fluid mechanics. The shape of the emblem represents a fifth polyhedron, a dodecahedron, which the Pythagoreans thought corresponded to a fifth element that represented the cosmos.
