About me
Born on 21 August 1960 in Maragheh, north-western Iran (famous for Maragheh Observatory and its founder Khajeh Nasir al-Din al Tusi), I am a space science and technology senior expert working in the Iranian Space Agency (ISA) since February 2004 in continuation of the activity in the former Iranian Remote Sensing Center (IRSC) based in Tehran, Iran from 1991 to 2004. I am also a researcher and freelance journalist in my career.
From June 2004 to June 2006 I worked as the United Nations Committee of Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS) Bureau Member in the capacity of the Second Vice-Chairman and Rapporteur. I am the first Iranian that has joined COPUOS Bureau since its establishment in 1958. Although this responsibility concluded in June 2006 however, my membership in Group-15 lasted by 11th June 2008 when the 51st COPUOS meeting opened.
