Online guide to the issues surrounding the demand for and allocation of slots for satellites in the geostationary orbit (GSO) written by Iulia-Diana Galeriu who has been a Legal Intern at IATA (International Air Transport Association) (2014-2015) and an International Institute of Air and Space Law Alumna. The guide was published in 2015 on the Globalex website and made freely available by the Hauser Global Law School Program at the New York University School of Law. The author focuses on the practice by some states of registering ‘paper satellites’ (satellites only existing on paper) which has the effect of reducing space in the GSO for other countries. The guide considers specific cases and includes a bibliography and links to related websites.
