    Title

    A new look at (how far are we with) Space Traffic Management

    type

    oral

    Description

    The subject of space traffic management continues to attract attention from technical and regulatory experts alike, with ongoing concern to move discussions forwards in mapping out and reaching agreement on a system of secure and safe orbital activities worthy of that name. This session takes as its starting point the various space data exchange systems currently in operation in support of conjunction avoidance, along with various studies that have looked at the subject. The aim of the session is to look at how space situational awareness (SSA), space surveillance and tracking (SST) can be integrated as elements within a greater framework for effective space traffic management. The session also looks at the approach to data sharing, and the factors influencing its limitations in practice. Authors are invited to share thoughts and proposals on the rules and mechanisms for space data exchange that could constitute a framework for space traffic management that invites consensus at international level. It also reviews efforts underway in certain states to develop coherent structures with similar goals at national level.
