PEACEFUL USE OF OUTER SPACE AT HEART RENEWED UN EFFORTS
New York, Apr 8 2013 2:00PM
The United Nations pressed ahead today with efforts to insure that
outer space is used solely for peaceful purpose and to counter the
threat posed by space debris.

The Legal Subcommittee of the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of
Outer Space (COPUOS) began a 12-day meeting in Vienna, home to UN
Office of Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), focussing on the status and
application of UN treaties on outer space, definition and delimitation
of outer space, legal mechanisms relating to space debris mitigation
measures and capacity-building in space law.

The meeting, which follows a five-day session last week in Geneva of
the UN-backed Group of Governmental Experts on Transparency and
Confidence-Building Measures in Outer Space Activities, will review
national legislation relevant to the peaceful exploration and use of
outer space.

It will open a new agenda item under a five year work-plan on the
review of international mechanisms for cooperation in the peaceful
exploration and use of outer space which will aim this year at
identifying a range of bilateral and multilateral legal mechanisms for
space cooperation.

There are five UN treaties dealing with outer space. These govern the
exploration and use of outer space, the rescue of astronauts and the
return of objects launched into space, liability for damage caused by
space objects, registration of objects launched into space, and the
activities of States on the moon and other celestial bodies.

During the meeting working groups will report on the status and
application of these treaties and on the definition and delimitation
of outer space.

Last week's meeting in Geneva focussed on the nature and substance of
transparency and confidence building measures (TCBMs) that would be
non-legally binding and voluntary, even though legally binding
measures have been discussed.
