Submission Statement: Breaking up in outer space: Will the competition between nation states move into the cosmos? 🌕

In 1967, a historic UN treaty came into force which today, more than five decades later, still forms the basis for international space law.

The Outer Space Treaty was an ambitious document declaring outer space to be a zone for collaboration and peaceful co-existence – a ‘province of all mankind’.

The article was first published in the latest issue of FARSIGHT - Futures Reviewed. The quarterly publication from Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies.
