Refraining from any restrictions on the use of outer space.

The papers by national and regional space agencies on NPS use in space programmes confirmed the relevance and validity of space NPS applications.

Many questions have been raised, including a possible distinction between weaponization and militarization of outer space, and definitions of technical terms, such as  outer space , space weapon , space object and peaceful use of outer space .

(b) To establish general trends in the use of space NPS

Secure and sustainable access to and use of outer space must be free from space based threats and aggression.

The use of space technologies in the economy of the Russian Federation

The intention was to use the following space NPS

Potential dangers such as the dissemination of dual use technologies, the shift from the militarization of space to the weaponization of space, and the growing problem of space debris are threatening to undermine security in outer space as well as prospects for its peaceful use by humanity as a whole.

As a widely used term, space security' is defined in terms of the secure and sustainable access to and use of space' and freedom from space based threats'.

Space weapons, can in fact, support the use of weapons on earth.

Hopes to dominate outer space through the use of force are illusory.

(b) Contracts for the use of a ship or of any space thereon

While the European Space Agency advocates the peaceful development of space assets and the peaceful use of space. There is an underlying contradiction between the EU space policy and the NATO space defence policy that needs to be addressed.

Otherwise, the right to the peaceful use of outer space and the safety of outer space assets will be put in jeopardy.

Indeed, China s military use of space is increasingly dependent and interlinked with civilian and commercial space activities, infrastructure, and human capital.

The working paper sets out the fundamental elements of an international convention on the non proliferation of weapons in outer space and the use or threat of use of force against objects in outer space.

WGNPS Working Group on the Use of Nuclear Power Sources in Outer Space

Review of the use of nuclear power sources in space programmes and international cooperation

Views also differ on whether weapons used for the defensive or peaceful use of space would be classified in the same way as offensive space or anti space capabilities.

In addition, the deployment and use of space weapons will seriously threaten the security of space assets and risks harming the biosphere of the earth.

Safety factors involved in the use of nuclear power sources in future space programmes

The Subcommittee agreed that the Office for Outer Space Affairs should continue its efforts to coordinate the use of space technology in disaster management and to promote the use and applications of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS).

The open initiative of UNESCO, conducted jointly with space agencies, on the use of space technology for monitoring World Heritage and natural sites is developing well.

Mr. Kazykhanov (Kazakhstan) said that the use of outer space and the application of space technologies to promote sustainable development were important areas for international cooperation.

We must make use of available policy space to devise our own strategies for development.

At the same time, the military use of outer space plays a growing role, too.

One such simple and efficient method involves filling gaps in existing international space law and securing a new comprehensive international legal agreement that would reliably block attempts to place weapons of any type in outer space or to use or threaten to use force against space objects.

Draft report of the Working Group on the Use of Nuclear Power Sources in Outer Space

The exploration and use of outer space must be assured as the province of all mankind.

Nuclear power in space is the use of nuclear power in outer space, typically either small fission systems or radioactive decay for electricity or heat.

The opening up and use of outer space is acquiring ever greater significance in the life of humanity. The benefits of the use of space assets are becoming an ever greater part of the heritage of every country, every people and every individual.

The Russian declaration in no way limits possibilities and prospects for international cooperation in outer space exploration or the use of outer space for peaceful purposes.

Since the launch of the first man made satellite, a sputnik, into outer space in 1957, mankind has achieved major advances in space exploration and use.

It lent Rentschler 250,000, the use of the Pratt Whitney name, and space in their building.

Travel behavior is the study of what people do over space, and how people use transport.

Three main principles should govern the activities of States in the exploration and use of outer space.

Although the procedure may use only a finite amount of storage space during a successful computation, there is no bound on the amount of space that is used.

Such a development would not only exacerbate unimaginably the threat of space debris but would seriously undermine international efforts to ensure the continued peaceful use of outer space.

The NASA paper considered the possibilities and advantages opened up by the use of space NPS inasmuch as their characteristics and parameters were independent of conditions in space.

The 1967 Outer Space Treaty reflects international consensus on the common interest of all mankind in the progress of the exploration and use of outer space for peaceful purposes .
