Agnès Fienga is a French astronomer working at the Institut de Mécanique Céleste et de Calcul des Éphémérides.

She is active in the field of planetary ephemerides generation and is a member of the International Astronomical Union (IAU). She collaborated with Dr. E. Myles Standish in research on the asteroids and their impact on the orbital motions.[1] Fienga is also interested in using planetary motions to test gravitational theories.[2] She has recently processed Cassini ranging data and identified an anomalous motion in Saturn's orbit, according to the results by Dr. Elena V. Pitjeva.

According to Google Scholar, her h-index as of 2025 is 43.[3]
