Italian term or phrase: avventura spaziale di marca italiana
Achab dello Spazio “… dritto, alto, taciturno, quasi ottant'anni portati con distratta noncuranza, XXXX, ex generale del genio aeronautico e professore all'Università di Roma, protagonista assoluto di questa avventura spaziale di marca italiana. Un personaggio insolito per le scene nostrane: testardo, egocentrico, refrattario ad alleanze che compromettano il suo diritto a decidere, irremovibile nelle sue scelte: un eroe solitario, un capitano Achab dello spazio.”

Explanation:
Literally "marca italiana" would be "Italian brand". I would use the more famous label.

Italian space adventure


Explanation:
The tone of the rest of the text being quite muted (narrative, rather than marketing slogans), I would just opt for a very simple translation to not end up with a clumsy sentence in English.
