In light of these changes, this conference, a joint effort of the International Institute of Space Law and the Indonesian International Law Society, set out to explore this brave new world, as well as Asia's increasingly important role in it. Collectively, the conference offers a panorama of the field while charting the general trajectory of some of the most important issues shaping the course of space law development. 41 ASIAN CENTER FOR SPACE LAW: FORWARD TO PROMOTE SPACE LAW AWARENESS IN ASIA.
The need that this effort can help fill is itself a product of rapid technological advances in the science of space law, as well as the breadth of its impact on the tasks of all states of the world. There are other factors which have conspired against the development of an empirical understanding of the role of the law of space in the problems of peace and war. The impact of modern technology on society, for example, has been rather unwelcome until recently in many of the disciplines of space forensics.
I am very grateful to the IISL Conference Proceedings Committee for inviting me to write some comments on the success of the 2011 Indonesian Proceedings and the Moot Court on Space Law held. One of the papers in this volume deals in great detail with Indonesia's draft national legislation.
RULE-BASED GOVERNANCE IN OUTER SPACE – CURRENTS, CONSTRAINTS AND CONTEMPORARY TRANSFORMATIONS

Main provisions of the Draft National Space Law reflecting the incorporation of standards of international space law. Article 49, paragraph (7) states that LAPAN shall register any Indonesian space object (and vehicle) with the Secretary-General of the United Nations.37.
Abstract: Protection of the outer space environment was first established as a principle in the Outer Space Treaty of 1967. As noted above, the 1967 Outer Space Treaty established only a few principled regulations regarding the protection of the outer space environment.

REGIONAL ORGANISATIONS IN ASIA
Abstract: Space cooperation in Asia shows a new perspective since the establishment of the Asia-Pacific Space Cooperation Organization (APSCO), and at the same time, it has brought a new impetus to the teaching and research of space law in the Asia-Pacific region. How to use the experience of the European Center for Space Law (ECSL) for development. The idea of establishing an Asian Space Agency and an Asian Center for Space Law.
However, the creation and operation of APSCO have laid a strong institutional foundation and warrant activities for the establishment of the Asia-Pacific Center for Space Law. Therefore, it needs a regional institution to play a role, to promote the teaching and research of space law in the Asia-Pacific region. 8 Haifeng Zhao, "Progress of Outer Space Law Teaching and Research in China" in Proceedings of the Institute of Space Law (AIAA Publications, 2010) at 3-13.
Therefore, there is a need to establish an APCSL in the Asia-Pacific region to develop the extension of space law and promote space law capacity building. As ESA provided much inspiration for the establishment of APSCO, ECSL will also be a good model for the establishment and development of the Asia-Pacific Center for Space Law. Regardless, it is an important institution that works in the field of educational programs for space law at the European level. 11.
Nevertheless, the creation and development of these projects play an important role in the expansion and research of space law. AN ASIAN SPACE LAW CENTER: THE WAY FORWARD FOR PROMOTING SPACE LAW AWARENESS IN ASIA. Following the model of the European Center for Space Law, Part 3 proposes the establishment of an Asia-Pacific Space Law Center (APSLC), which will take on the important task of promoting awareness of space law in the region.
This can be a fatal element for the purpose of promoting space law in the region. Furthermore, technical cooperation can be quite different from cooperation in the promotion of space law. With a solid foundation and financial support, the Space Law Research Center can be well established and placed within the current framework of APSCO.
SATELLITE APPLICATIONS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF HUMANITY
In the context of emerging spatial data infrastructure, such unification is the need of the hour. TEN YEARS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE INTERNATIONAL CHARTER ON SPACE AND MAJOR DISASTERS: A HISTORY OF. The first one provides a historical overview of the Charter and analyzes its legal status and the mechanism to activate it.
The second part focuses on the implementation of the Charter and issues arising from it. The success of the Card is evidenced by the constantly increasing number of its activations. Ito, “Issues in the Implementation of the International Charter on Space and Major Disasters Space Pol'y 141.
8 According to Article I of the Charter on Space and Major Disasters, three forms of participation in the Charter's activities are foreseen: 'parties', 'associated bodies' and 'collaborating bodies'. IMPLEMENTING THE CHARTER ON SPACE AND MAJOR DISASTERS: POSITIVE FEATURES AND OPERATIONAL AND LEGAL ISSUES. The success of the Charter is further demonstrated both by the increasing number of activations as well as by member space agencies.
21 During the period of activation of the Charter, 25 maps of flooded areas were produced. As a result, the use of the Charter and its products in the case of Haiti has not been as successful and effective as it should and should have been. The possibility that the implementation of the Charter will cause damage is not so small.
This section addresses existing challenges to the charter's institutional and operational framework and their impact on current and future charter activities. Attention will be focused on three issues: (1) the charter's increasing membership;. 2) the rising costs; and (3) the scope of the charter. The basic principle of the charter is the free distribution of space-based products to states affected by disasters.
SPACE LAW AND TELECOMMUNICATION SATELLITE OPERATIONS
The international community formed a number of multilateral and bilateral treaties which supplement the rules for the commercial use of outer space found in the corpus juris spatialis. 33 G. Lafferranderie, "The Roles of International Organization in Privatization and Commercial Use of Outer Space," in Proceedings of the Workshop on Space Law in the 21st Century (New York: United. One of the characteristics of the intellectual property rights in commercial use of the outer space is the specialty of its location.
In the case of the ISS, the IGA contains clear rules for patents generated in the ISS. Fourth, the exploration and use of space resources is part of many states' space strategy; however, the legal status of space resources remains unclear. Fifth, the commercial use of space also poses challenges for the protection of the space environment.
One of the unfortunate consequences of this will be increased pollution of the space environment in the form of space debris. As satellites are classified as mobile equipment, they are covered by the Cape Town system scope. VI of the Outer Space Treaty requires states to control the space activities of their citizens and to be responsible for any damage they cause.
The jurisdiction and control provisions under the Cape Town system are in direct conflict with the provisions of the Outer Space Treaty. The interplay between the Cape Town system and the liability convention is also a potential area of difficulty. Hermida, “Transfer of Satellites in Orbit: An International Law Approach” in Proceedings of the Forty-fifth Colloquium on Space Law (2003).
Therefore, the superiority of the space treaties over the Cape Town system must be asserted more forcefully in the operational part. Without a doubt, the Cape Town system is one of the most important achievements in the history of financing space activities. PEACE”) – to the international space communities to address the problems and concerns of the global environment.
He proposed using the natural resources of the Moon for exploration purposes. The space applications sector has witnessed tremendous development with the active participation of the private sector.
