ILOA Hawai’i Overview:

  • ILOA is an interglobal enterprise incorporated in Hawai’i as a 501(c)(3) non-profit in 2007 to help realize the multifunctional ILO for long-term astronomy, science and exploration at the Moon South Pole, and to participate in human lunar base build-out – with Aloha. ILOA also has, since 2008, co-sponsored with its Space Age Publishing Company affiliate an international series of Galaxy Forums.
