Our listeners know that aerospace is not just about being an astronaut or engineer—both of which are fine career options. In fact, almost any field here on Earth will be needed as we becoming space faring nations. Including, yes, you guessed it, lawyers..

Today, we meet with Michelle Hanlon—who IS a  space lawyer.  Ms. Hanlon  is Co-Director of the Air & Space Law Program at the University of Mississippi School of Law. She is also the Editor-in-Chief of both the Journal of Space Law and the Journal of Drone Law and Policy.  Michelle co-founded For All Moonkind a nonprofit that is the only organization in the world focused on protecting human history in outer space.   For All Moonkind is a Permanent Observer to the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space.  As if all that wasn’t enough to make her an expert in today’s conversation, Michelle is also President of the National Space Society and founding partner of ABH Space Law.

For all our “talkies” out there who love policy work, this is an episode you won’t want to miss and we hope you will stay tuned after for our takeaways.
