UIC Law Review

Human civilization is on the brink of exploring another frontier. As usual, the super power governments of the world have played a major role in the initial stages.

The Delimitation Between Airspace And Outer Space And The Emergence Of Aerospace Objects, Jinyuan Su 2013 Southern Methodist University

The Delimitation Between Airspace And Outer Space And The Emergence Of Aerospace Objects, Jinyuan Su

Journal of Air Law and Commerce

Although the legal border between airspace and outer space still awaits international agreement, this lacuna has not given rise to significant difficulties in the determination of applicable law with respect to traditional flight craft-aircraft and space objects due to their separated spheres of activity. The emergence of aerospace objects' does not justify the urgency of delimitation. In the alternative, the difficult question of delimitation could be circumvented if the law is determined based on the objects' nature or purpose. Those performing space missions should be governed by space law, but their traverse through other states' airspace should be regulated.

One of the more advanced projects to offer private commercial spaceflights concerns Curaçao, the Dutch island in the Caribbean, from where Space Expedition Corporation (SXC) aims to start launching such flights as of 2014 with vehicles to be developed by XCOR.
