Assuring the sustainability of space activities / Williamson, Ray A   Journal Article
Williamson, Ray A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract The growth of new space systems and the continued creation of orbital debris could in a few years make activities in Earth orbit unsustainable, so finding cost-effective ways to sustain space activities in Earth orbit is essential. Because outer space activities serve the needs of the military-intelligence, civil, and commercial communities, each with their own requirements, creating the necessary international agreements for reaching and maintaining a condition of sustainability will not be easy. This paper summarizes the primary issues for the international space community regarding our future ability to reap the benefit of space systems in Earth orbit. It explores several of the efforts to develop international agreements that would lead to or support the sustainability of space activities and examines the benefits and drawbacks of each approach. In particular, it reviews progress within the UN COPUOS, and examines the EU's proposal for an international Code of Conduct for Outer Space Activities. It also notes the need for states to establish or expand their own space legal infrastructure to conform to the UN treaties and guidelines for space activities.

Astropolitics and the "exopolitics" of unacknowledged activitie / Salla, Michael E   Journal Article
Salla, Michael E Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract The role of unacknowledged classified programs remains an enigma for fully understanding activities in space and the study of astropolitics. Classified programs by law are not publicly announced, and remain inaccessible to all except those with valid security clearances to be briefed about them. In the United States, waived Unacknowledged Special Access Programs are the most highly classified programs conducted by the military and intelligence community. The same classification protocols are also required of private contractors working with U.S. military departments and intelligence agencies on classified programs. As space continues to grow in its national security significance, the number of these unacknowledged programs pertaining to space is likely to grow significantly from its current number. This requires adopting the necessary conceptual tools and methodological flexibility for investigating unacknowledged activities in space. This also extends to evidence concerning unidentified flying objects and extraterrestrial life. This article suggests that "exopolitics" is a unique multidisciplinary approach to extraterrestrial life that offers a helpful set of conceptual tools for studying unacknowledged space activities, and complements the field of astropolitics.

Atomic salvation: a case for nuclear planetary defense / Dobos, Bohumil; Prazak, Jakub ; Nemeckova, Marie   Journal Article
Dobos, Bohumil Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Asteroid and comet collisions present low-chance, high-impact risks for the Earth. As such, it is unlikely that space powers will invest into capabilities aiming at the development of new deflection technologies leaving planetary defense with two readily available methods – kinetic impactor and nuclear warhead. Legally and normatively, the use of a nuclear device in outer space is in the current state of affairs forbidden. In the case of an emergency with an impending impact, such an approach is needed. This article suggests that establishment of an exception in international space law strengthens the nuclear regime while allowing for an effective deflection in the space domain if the need arises.

Australia’s new alliance dynamics, US–China rivalry and conflict entrapment in outer space / Schaefer, David   Journal Article
Schaefer, David Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Canberra’s exposure to great-power conflict is arguably more complex and ambiguous than during the Cold War. Drawing from scholarly literature on entrapment and recent developments in outer-space security, this article explores Australia’s position in a hypothetical US–China war over Taiwan. The shifting military balance in outer space, recent war games by the US military and regional trends in defence planning all raise the possibility of a scenario opening with Chinese cyberattacks against information networks shared between Australia and the USA. As a result of its growing dependency on space systems, Australia may be entrapped in a novel way which poses questions for scholars and policymakers. These findings should encourage further study of regional crisis management, with the need for a shared understanding of strategic behaviour in outer space and cybernetworks.

Chartering territories in outer space: obligating the need for a national legal framework in India / Gupta, Biswanath; KD, Raju   Journal Article
Gupta, Biswanath Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Space research is heralded as the harbinger of the next level of advancement in science and technology. The fact that countries are spending millions of dollars in this regard is testament to its potential. India is making inroads in the field and, in the last 15 years, has established itself as a dominant player. According to Antrix, the commercial wing of the Indian Space Research Organization, India commercially launched 209 foreign satellites of other countries into space. Apart from this, Antrix is applying its success in other commercial activities, like remote sensing, selling of space objects (parts of satellites and launching vehicles), and mission support. In keeping with this development, the Indian legal position and policy framework with respect to commercial space activities are reviewed. The article also surveys India’s commitment to international space law and its reflection in national legislation. Finally, the existing policy related to commercial space in India is examined and measures are suggested to create national legislation for the country to deal with issues of commercial space activities.

Common Heritage of Mankind for Outer Space / Khatwani, Naman   Journal Article
Khatwani, Naman Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The paper examines the intention of the drafters of the Outer Space Treaty regime to advance from the principle of “common province of mankind” and adopt “Common Heritage of Mankind”. In this context, the drafting history of the Moon Agreement, which helps discern the meanings ascribed to Common Heritage of Mankind by various countries, is considered. Moreover, the usage of the term in other realms, such as the deep seabed regime and Antarctica, is essential to understand the concept. The introduction of Common Heritage of Mankind in the United Nations Law of the Sea led to various industrialized developed countries, including the United States, to oppose the law. Hence, the approach was diluted to ensure it converts into a more liberal condition that does not enforce strict mandates on parties to the Law of the Sea. A similar view of states exists with respect to the Moon Agreement resulting to date in only 17 ratifications by states with no spacefaring states among them. Consequently, most states argue that the Common Heritage of Mankind principle in the Moon Agreement is not applicable due to not being party to the agreement. It is also argued that since there is no state practice suggesting opinion juris regarding Common Heritage of Mankind, it is not part of customary international law. The non-inclusion of the principle as a customary norm makes the relevance of Common Heritage of Mankind in the present world debatable and uncertain.

Dark forces awaken: the prospects for cooperative space security / Meyer, Paul   Journal Article
Meyer, Paul Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract International cooperation on outer-space security has fluctuated over the past decades, marked by periods of common endeavor and relative stability as well as times of destabilizing developments and rising tensions. A high-water mark of space-security diplomacy was the 2013 UN Group of Governmental Experts consensus report on “Transparency and Confidence-Building Measures in Outer Space Activities,” which set out a rich menu of measures and promised new levels of cooperative security among states. Regrettably, the report was followed by a series of negative developments that threaten to reverse the cooperative trend it espoused. These developments include the introduction (by Russia and China) and rejection (by the United States) of a revised draft treaty on the Prevention of Placement of Weapons in Outer Space (PPWT); the adoption by the UN General Assembly of a divisive resolution on “no first placement” of space weapons; the failure of the European Union to gain support for its proposed Code of Conduct, as well as escalating strategic tensions. This viewpoint analyzes the re-emergence of these “dark forces” and their implications for multilateral diplomacy and makes suggestions for remedial action to preserve outer-space security.

Debates over the military value of outer space in the past, pre: drawing on space power theory in the U.S. / Fukushima, Yasuhito   Journal Article
Fukushima, Yasuhito Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract Throughout the Cold War era, U.S. debate over the military value of outer space focused on how space systems were able to contribute to nuclear deterrence and strategic stability between the U.S. and Soviet Union. Sanctuary school was the first prevailing view of the debate, and it recognized the value of outer space in the observation of regions within the boundaries of other sovereign nations. However, the views of this school were relativized following the inauguration of the Reagan Administration. As an alternative to the sanctuary school, there was another argument that made headway, which was that outer space should be positioned as the ultimate high ground and that ballistic missiles should be intercepted from outer space. Furthermore, following an increase in the military value of outer space, the idea that space control would become a prerequisite for the utilization of outer space began to draw interest. In the post-Cold War era, in contrast, the main point of contention has been about how space systems can contribute to wartime military engagements. The Gulf War saw a rise in the military value of space systems in terms of C4ISR, and since then the U.S. has maintained its policy of pursuing the C4ISR value of space systems in military operations. At the same time, as the perceived value of space systems increased, the view that space control should be established gained traction. However, when considering the future path of the debate, space control has a number of issues in terms of feasibility. Additionally, in the long term, the utilization of outer space as the high ground may become the point of contention. Nonetheless, technical challenges and other issues must be overcome before space-based BMD systems and other alternatives can be deployed.
