Publisher's Synopsis
Fifty years have passed since the signing of the 1967 Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies, and a new space odyssey is on the horizon. Space activities are no longer conducted solely by states. Private actors have entered the market. The world has changed - the world of space has been profoundly transformed and the law must adapt, but how? What will space activities be like in fifty years... in 2067? The system is constantly evolving to take into account the new issues related to the activities, and to the evolution of technologies. We are at the dawn of a new era in space activities - which now requires reflection on exactly how to adapt, and adopt adequate legal frameworks to balance sometimes competing interests. This book is intended for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the space sector and its evolution.
