    Title

    Safety of Space Tourism and Associated Regulations

    Description

    Opening space to ordinary citizens is both a great economic and human outlook and a great challenge. One of the main requirements is to deal properly with all safety issues. The goal of the session is to take part in the case for space tourism safety, by identifying, evaluating, illustrating the various aspects contributing to it. Examples are welcome from the aeronautics sector, which brings an interesting lighting of certification and implementation of international and local regulations.
