UM prof named to space solar cmte

OXFORD, Miss. – The International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) has named University of Mississippi law professor Michelle Hanlon to its permanent committee on space solar power.

As countries look to develop clean, efficient forms of power, the IAA formed the Permanent Committee on Space Solar Power to advise on ways of harnessing and delivering sunlight-powered energy from outer space to markets on Earth.

The International Academy of Astronautics is an independent, non-governmental organization that seeks to develop peaceful human space travel and exploration. 

Hanlon, executive director of the Center for Air and Space Law in the Ole Miss School of Law and co-founder and CEO of For All Moonkind, will co-chair the legal and regulatory consideration subcommittee. 

Hanlon is among about three dozen people from across the globe appointed to the committee. (University of Mississippi 12/12/23) Professor to Co-Chair International Astronautics Committee - Ole Miss News
