A University of Mississippi professor is playing<br \/>\nan important role in that process as an internationally<br \/>\nrecognized expert on space law and as a newly-appointed<br \/>\nmember of the International Institute of Space Law&#8217;s board<br \/>\nof directors.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\n<span>Research professor Joanne Gabrynowicz said one of the major<br \/>\nissues in the realm of space law is the growing interest in<br \/>\nwriting national space laws in nationals that have recently<br \/>\nentered outer space. For example, Nigeria is defining the<br \/>\ntreaty regime for space exploration activities on the moon<br \/>\nand Mars.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>As a member of the board, Gabrynowicz will work with other<br \/>\nIISL members to guide the direction of the organization and<br \/>\nits role in the development of space law.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>&#8220;This is an honor that I will pursue to the best of my<br \/>\nability. National and international efforts in developing<br \/>\nspace law are increasing around the world,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Many<br \/>\nnew nations are becoming spacefarers. It is an exciting<br \/>\ntime to assume this position.&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>The IISL appointment is just one of many roles filled by<br \/>\nGabrynowicz, who is a frequent guest at United Nations<br \/>\nconferences and other international space law groups. Just<br \/>\nthis year, the professor has traveled to Beijing, China, to<br \/>\nspeak at the International Conference on Air Transport and<br \/>\nSpace Activities and was asked by the United Nations to<br \/>\nparticipate in a December conference on space law in<br \/>\nVienna, Austria.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>The IISL, founded in 1960, has individual and institutional<br \/>\nelected members from more than 40 countries. The<br \/>\norganization is a component of the International<br \/>\nAstronautical Federation, and its objectives include<br \/>\ncooperation with appropriate international organizations<br \/>\nand national institutions in the field of space law and<br \/>\nfostering the development of space law and studies of legal<br \/>\nand social science aspects of the exploration and use of<br \/>\nouter space.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>Gabrynowicz has taught space law and policy since 1987 and<br \/>\nremote sensing law and policy since 1990.
