On November 07, 2022, Anna Gurova, a researcher at the International Center for Space Law, PhD, a member of the International Institute of Space Law and the Lunar Settlement Association, delivered a lecture on the peculiarities of legal regulation of the use of outer space for students majoring in International Law.
At first, she spoke about international organizations and international treaties governing the use of outer space, focusing in detail on the mandate of the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, the activities of its Scientific and Technical Subcommittee and the Legal Subcommittee, the UN Office for the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, the Space Applications Division of the International Committee on Global Navigation Satellite Systems.
The second part of the lecture was devoted to the practical aspects of the use of outer space and the challenges faced by the international community. It was interesting to hear about modern space wars, space debris mitigation, registration of space objects and responsibility for space activities.
The students were fascinated by the information they heard, when it was so simple and easy to talk about the complex.
We sincerely thank dear Anna Mikhailivna for the time and opportunity to share her knowledge with our students.
