Space Governance

Publication: Space 2002 and Robotics 2002

Abstract

The void in outer space is extended to a void in legal standards by treaty, and by UN committees. "Space governance" is a term that describes another level of direct government for outer space to supplement the international treaty system. The Regency of United Societies in Space is identified as one important aspect of direct governance for space. Its organic documents are presented and its personnel listed. This paper will not only update the activities of United Societies in Space, but, will also provide two examples of how this regime dovetails with the UN international space treaty regime.
