Abstract

Iran's first endeavor in space dates back to 1958 when established the United Nations ad-hoc Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space with other 17 countries(later changed its name to the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space : COPUOS). Because of an 8 year imposed war following the Islamic revolution (1979), the country's space activities were halted until 2004 when Iranian Space Agency was established. In this article the structure of ISA and its changes to meet the needs of coordinating with international space law will be reviewed. We will go through rules and regulations according to private space activities and their shortcomings and at the end there are some recommendations to improve private sector's role in this regard.
