The Consortium for History of Science, Technology and Medicine’s Lisa Ruth Rand, a GSWS Graduate Certificate recipient, recently won one of three Perry World House Emerging Scholars Global Policy Prizes. The $10,000 prize was awarded for Rand's work "Egalitarian Orbits: A New Regime for Geostationary Space," which looks at the challenges of governing geostationary space — the ideal environment for communications satellites — fairly and sustainably, and proposes reforms to the United Nations' Outer Space Treaty of 1967.
