    Title

    Assuring the Long-Term Sustainability of Outer Space Activities

    type

    oral

    Description

    The long-term sustainability of space activities is a matter of common concern for all current and future space actors. The increasing number of countries and private operators operating space systems and the growing amounts of space debris raise important questions about continuing to operate spacecraft in Earth orbit over the long term. Frequency management to prevent interferences, and influence of space weather are other critical issues This session, which will support the activities of the Working Group on the Long-Term Sustainability of Outer Space Activities of the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, will explore the policies guidelines and application of the legal provisions of the outer space treaties that will be needed to assure long-term sustainability.
