Overview for Outer Space Law: From Theory to Practice
The focus of this book is the legal issues relating to the outer space that have emerged recently in the light of developments in the space technology. Most of the articles highlight the present space activities and their legality in the light of the existing space treaties. The articles also stress on the need for the progressive development of the space law in various fields of outer space activities. Therefore, the book would be helpful in understanding the intricacies of the space activities from the legal point of view. It would also analyse the practical difficulties and the loopholes in the existing space law and give an insight into the possible ways of plugging those loopholes.
