    Title

    Space Law in a Networked World

    type

    oral

    Description

    Space applications have entered human daily lives all over the globe. Voice and Interned-based communications, weather reports and emergency warnings, navigation and positioning, images and video flows emerge, literally, from our pockets. Not only people and businesses have become constantly networked via space capabilities, but also machines. These process big data and furnish us with vital information for decision-making. This may even include decision-making for us. Could the authors of the United Nations space treaties have imagined how significant those principles of space activities were or would become for ensuring public interest and the quality of life, health, and well-being of Earth’s population? Tangible changes in the exploration and use of outer space have taken, and continue to take place. With an ever increasing number of space actors and the continuous development of new technologies, space is becoming more accessible and affordable. This session aims at discussing whether traditional space law still keeps pace with modern times or there is an urgent need to reflect these changes in a regulatory framework.
