Akron Law Review
Fragile man, tailored to his planet Earth, having demonstrated in Apollo missions that he can overcome hazards of travel to the moon and return, and in Skylab and Soyuz missions that he can live in the weightlessness of space for an appreciable period of time during which he can maintain an experimental space laboratory, is about to embark in the Space Shuttle on ventures that will truly comprise another giant step for mankind.
Current Status Of Nasa Space Shuttle Regulations, George Paul Sloup
Current Status Of Nasa Space Shuttle Regulations, George Paul Sloup
Akron Law Review
The remainder of this article will list these new Shuttle regulations, both final and pending, and provide a very brief explanation of their purpose. Critical analysis and evaluation of these regulations, however, is outside the scope of this article.
Some Aspects Of Third Party Liability In Space Shuttle Operations, Theodore E. Wolcott
Some Aspects Of Third Party Liability In Space Shuttle Operations, Theodore E. Wolcott
Akron Law Review
It is not my intention to make a clause by clause analysis of the Space Liability Convention or treaties related thereto, an undertaking already effectively performed by others. The series of postponements of the Shuttle launch has left the initial takeoff date uncertain, thus enhancing the academic aura of this paper. Insofar as presently may seem feasible, the primary concern herein is from the point of view of a practicing American lawyer.
Private Management And Operation Of The Space Shuttle: Some Legal Problems Related To Market Entry, George S. Robinson
Private Management And Operation Of The Space Shuttle: Some Legal Problems Related To Market Entry, George S. Robinson
Akron Law Review
Most of the private enterprise constituency interested in participating in the commercial exploitation of near and deep space will be subject to a multitude of new laws and entire legal regimes, ranging in scope from public and private international law to domestic legislation, implementing regulations and, even the old and new anti-trust laws. The majority of the interested business community has no idea that an amalgam of specific legal principles and regimes already exists of sufficient distinction to be called "space law."
The New Era In Outer Space, Hamilton Desaussure
The New Era In Outer Space, Hamilton Desaussure
Akron Law Review
In a speech given at the Kennedy Space Center October, 1978, President Carter noted that the United States has invested about one hundred billion dollars in the United States space program and that the inauguration of the space shuttle will bring the second great era of the space age. He stated that the most paradoxical and exciting thing about the shuttle is that "it will make our use of space in the future routine and perhaps not very exciting. . . ." Routine it may not become for perhaps a generation, but exciting it will almost certainly be from the …
The Operator's Liability With Regard To Transport Of Goods By Space Shuttle, I.H. Ph. Diederiks-Verschoor
The Operator's Liability With Regard To Transport Of Goods By Space Shuttle, I.H. Ph. Diederiks-Verschoor
Akron Law Review
The Convention on International Liability for Damage Caused by Space Object3 covers only the damage caused to third parties and objects in space. A parallel to the Warsaw Convention of 1929 which regulates the liability of air carriers for injury to transported passengers, luggage and goods, and also for delay in delivery, has not been established in space law. Until now there was no need for such a Convention. With the development of the transportation of goods in space, however, legal rules governing this liability will become desirable, if not necessary.
Uncrashworthy Aircraft And The Manufacturer's Liability, Robert Kent
Uncrashworthy Aircraft And The Manufacturer's Liability, Robert Kent
Akron Law Review
The concept of crashworthiness has now been accepted by a resounding majority of states if not all states. Although widely used since Larsen in automobile crash cases, crashworthiness has only recently been successfully applied to the aircraft. Perhaps this foreshadows the future. The automobile differs only slightly from the helicopter and the airplane. All are products; all are accepted modes of transportation; and all may be designed to be reasonably safe. The doctrine of crashworthiness has been so widely accepted with respect to the automobile that the time has now arrived for the doctrine to be accepted in the field …
Lease, Charter And Interchange Of Aircraft: A Governmental Perspective, John T. Stewart Jr.
Lease, Charter And Interchange Of Aircraft: A Governmental Perspective, John T. Stewart Jr.
Akron Law Review
The problems concerning the responsibility of the State of registry with respect to its aircraft which are operated by an operator whose nationality is of another State are primarily jurisdictional in nature. In dealing with them international focus has been upon safety, criminal jurisdiction, property rights in aircraft, and to some extent the responsibilities for damages resulting from the operation of the aircraft which cloak both the State of registry and the State of the operator. What follows outlines briefly the various approaches used by the international legal community to resolve the problems associated with aircraft leases and will be …
A Proposal For A Commissioned Corps Of Space Travelers, Paul F. Adams
A Proposal For A Commissioned Corps Of Space Travelers, Paul F. Adams
Akron Law Review
The exploitive capabilities of the Space Shuttle include its ability to function as a reconnaissance or navigational satellite, a repair or resupply station for other satellites, or as a base station for building large structures in space. Additionally, senior officials of NASA strongly support the establishment of a permanently manned space station, of which shuttle technological capabilities would be an integral part. I As astronaut Robert Crippen said after the maiden flight of Columbia: "We are really in the space business to stay." While the new space technology is undergoing refinement and the imagination is simultaneously developing virtually unlimited uses …

Akron Law Review
The purpose of this article is to focus on space acts that may be classified as ultrahazardous (specifically microbiological research) and to discuss how these activities are or will be affected by current or future legal regulations. Legal standards from both a United States and an international perspective will be discussed.
The Common Interest In The Exploration, Use And Exploitation Of Outer Space For Peaceful Purposes: The Soviet-American Dilemma, Carl Q. Christol
The Common Interest In The Exploration, Use And Exploitation Of Outer Space For Peaceful Purposes: The Soviet-American Dilemma, Carl Q. Christol
Akron Law Review
It may be supposed that the final disposition of the use of anti-satellite satellites (ASAT) will take the form of an international agreement which would prescribe required conduct and which would meet the national interests of the signatories. Some attention might be given to a possible alternative. One suggestion is for each of the superpowers to announce that it will pursue a given policy provided the same policy is adhered to by the other. Or, perhaps the promulgation of a national position, for example, a moratorium on ASAT launches, if rigorously adhered to by the other State, might lead to …
Prospects For The Demilitarization Of The Manned Space Station, Hamilton Desaussure
Prospects For The Demilitarization Of The Manned Space Station, Hamilton Desaussure
Akron Law Review
An incremental approach to the complete disarmament of outer space could continue with the prohibition of any type of military activity on board earth orbiting manned space stations. The U.S. and the USSR are committed to placing such stations in permanent orbit within the next decade. An international agreement giving demilitarized status to them would be a major achievement.
Article IV of the Outer Space Treaty prohibits the establishment of military bases, installations, and fortifications on the moon and other celestial bodies. Manned space stations in earth orbit should be subject to the same limitations, with military personnel permitted for …

Mistakes, Airfares, And Consumers: Restoring The Department Of Transportation's Role In Regulating Unfair Trade Practices, Terence Lau
Terence Lau
This Article traces the problem of mistake airfares and the federal government’s response to airlines that cancel tickets for erroneous fares. Part I of the Article explores airline pricing generally, and argues that airline tickets are a unique form of commodity good, one where there is no consumer expectation of a reasonable price. The dynamic nature of airline yield management means that prices for the exact same seat on an airplane can range dramatically on a variety of circumstances and factors that are beyond the knowledge, control or comprehension of the ordinary consumer. The Article investigates several well-known examples of …
Charting The Course For Use Of Small Unmanned Aerial Systems In Newsgathering, Mickey H. Osterreicher
Charting The Course For Use Of Small Unmanned Aerial Systems In Newsgathering, Mickey H. Osterreicher
Pepperdine Law Review
News organizations and individual journalists eagerly anticipate safely utilizing Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS) for newsgathering purposes as lawmakers integrate sUAS into the National Air Space (NAS). For now, these potential users may be flying over an "unchartered" regulatory landscape while the FAA struggles to complete its administrative rulemaking. In order to better understand how media organizations and individual journalists intend to use sUAS for newsgathering purposes, the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA) developed a survey consisting of twenty-one multiple choice questions, with space for elaboration, and three questions seeking narrative responses. The survey was distributed via email to approximately …
An Approach To The Regulation Of Spanish Banking Foundations, Miguel Martínez
An Approach To The Regulation Of Spanish Banking Foundations, Miguel Martínez
Miguel Martínez
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the legal framework governing banking foundations as they have been regulated by Spanish Act 26/2013, of December 27th, on savings banks and banking foundations. Title 2 of this regulation addresses a construct that is groundbreaking for the Spanish legal system, still of paramount importance for the entire financial system insofar as these foundations become the leading players behind certain banking institutions given the high interest that foundations hold in the share capital of such institutions.
Legal Aspects Of Navigation: The Cases For Privacy And Liability: An Introduction For Non-Lawyers, Frans G. Von Der Dunk
Legal Aspects Of Navigation: The Cases For Privacy And Liability: An Introduction For Non-Lawyers, Frans G. Von Der Dunk
Space, Cyber, and Telecommunications Law Program: Faculty Publications
Navigation making use of advanced technologies—notably involving radiowaves providing precise information on positioning, navigation options, and on the surrounding geographic environment—has become an ever more present phenomenon in today’s societies. Needless to say, this raises also a number of profound legal issues, some more general in nature, some more specific to the navigation sector or even a specific subsector thereof, alternatively taking on a specific flavor once arising in that context. Among those, arguably the issues of privacy and protection of data against undue interference, respectively liability for erroneous positioning, navigation, or environmental information and any damage or loss suffered …

Prime Air Encounters Faa Turbulence, Julie Cummings
Prime Air Encounters Faa Turbulence, Julie Cummings
GGU Law Review Blog
Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), often called drones, are rapidly entering the public space. Because drones operate in federal airspace, Congress tasked the FAA with creating new safety rules to address commercial drone flight. In February, the FAA released its proposed new rules governing drones weighing less than 55 pounds, which are used for non‑recreational purposes. Among other restrictions, the proposed rules limit flights to daylight, visual‑line‑of‑sight, below 500 feet, at flight speeds not to exceed 100 miles per hour. Additionally, operators must not fly drones over people. The FAA would also require operators to be certified and to incur other …

Waste And Duplication In Nasa Programs: The Need To Enhance U.S. Space Program Efficiency, Bert Chapman
Waste And Duplication In Nasa Programs: The Need To Enhance U.S. Space Program Efficiency, Bert Chapman
Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research
The U.S. Government faces acute budgetary deficits and national debt problems in the Obama Administration. These problems have been brought about by decades of unsustainable government spending affecting all agencies including the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. (NASA). An outgrowth of this fiscal profligacy is the presence of wasteful and duplicative programs within NASA that prevent this agency from achieving its space science and human spaceflight objectives. These problems occur due to mismanagement of these programs from NASA and the creation of these programs by the U.S. Congress and congressional committees. This occurs because congressional appropriators tend to be more …

Pirker And Beyond: Questions Of Policy Versus Law On Unmanned Aerial Systems (Uas), Sarah Nilsson
Pirker And Beyond: Questions Of Policy Versus Law On Unmanned Aerial Systems (Uas), Sarah Nilsson
Aviation / Aeronautics / Aerospace International Research Conference
The regulatory versus policy landscape for unmanned aerial system (UAS) users in the United States (US), as of February 2015, is not an easy one to navigate. The whole country is buzzing with the sound of this new technology, not just in terms of engine noise but more so in terms of the public outcry to the invasion of privacy. The federal government is currently drafting laws that will safely integrate these systems within the National Airspace System (NAS). Concurrently, at least 20 states, unable to wait patiently in the sidelines for such legislation, have implemented their own statutes to …
Assessing The Commercial Aviation Impact Of The Year 2000 Open Skies Agreements Between The United States And African Countries With Longstanding Flights, Tyler B. Spence, Micah Walala, Richard O. Fanjoy
Assessing The Commercial Aviation Impact Of The Year 2000 Open Skies Agreements Between The United States And African Countries With Longstanding Flights, Tyler B. Spence, Micah Walala, Richard O. Fanjoy
Aviation / Aeronautics / Aerospace International Research Conference
The U.S. started a comprehensive campaign towards Open Skies agreement in 1992. The major benefits of Open sky agreement are reported to include increase of passenger and cargo volume between partners. This study analyzes passenger traffic and cargo volume between six African countries that have had commercial aviation with the U.S. since 1990 to 2014, and with direct flights between them. Two of the countries have had no Open Skies agreement with the U.S., while four have had Open Skies agreement beginning in 2000. A multi linear modeling process was applied on the two categories to determine whether there is …
Effective Exercise Of ‘In-Space Jurisdiction’: The Us Approach And The Problems It Is Facing, Frans G. Von Der Dunk
Effective Exercise Of ‘In-Space Jurisdiction’: The Us Approach And The Problems It Is Facing, Frans G. Von Der Dunk
Space, Cyber, and Telecommunications Law Program: Faculty Publications
As mankind moves closer to the fiftieth anniversary of the conclusion of the Outer Space Treaty, the framework international treaty laying down the baseline regime for space activities, it may be considered a major achievement that the treaty, as well as some of its offspring—notably the Rescue Agreement, Liability Convention, and Registration Convention—seem to be as relevant as ever. This is a major feat in an international era of many fundamental changes in the geopolitical, economic, and social context.
Nevertheless, the increasing involvement of private entities in many fields of space activity beyond the (by now) more “traditional” ones of …

The “Space Side” To “Harmful Interference”—Evaluating Regulatory Instruments In Addressing Interference Issues In The Context Of Satellite Communications, Frans G. Von Der Dunk
The “Space Side” To “Harmful Interference”—Evaluating Regulatory Instruments In Addressing Interference Issues In The Context Of Satellite Communications, Frans G. Von Der Dunk
Space, Cyber, and Telecommunications Law Program: Faculty Publications
Interference issues in the context of satellite communications can, in principle, be tackled with legal means from a variety of angles, due to the multifaceted character of both interference and satellite communications as a sector. From that perspective, the present contribution addresses the most important regulatory instruments available to address the particular aspects of satellite communications related to their usage of outer space, and represents a first summary effort to evaluate their particular scope, approach, and general effectiveness.
