SatelLife is an initiative of the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, recipient of the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize. When "Star Wars" was threatening to make space yet another battleground, IPPNW co-founder and co- president Dr. Bernard Lown suggested the creation of a satellite-based global health communications system as a means of demonstrating that space can unite rather than further divide humankind.
