The scholarly contributions presented in this timely collection address the special realm of legal rules pertinent to space activities and their terrestrial applications. Outer space is generally considered a “global commons”, so this volume focuses on the international regime which is also the foundation of an increasing number of national space laws. Topics covered concern the development, character and structure of international space law, its relationship with national space law, and the military and commercial aspects of space activities, including launching and satellite applications. Together with an original introduction by the editor, this fascinating collection provides a comprehensive overview of the most important matters relating to international space law and will be a valuable research tool for academics and practitioners alike.
