Towards a European Approach to Space Traffic Management
The space sector has been impacted by the Covid-19 crisis, with widespread uncertainty about the long-lasting effects of the emerging and unprecedented economic crisis. This ESPI Brief firstly looks at how space capabilities contributed to monitor and manage the crisis and how the European space sector has been impacted; then, it examines the major issues at stake in handling the crisis and the broad consequences for public strategy and space policy.
The ESPI Yearbook provides an overview of major developments and trends in space policy, industry, programmes, economy and overall worldwide activity over the year. This year ESPI updated the editorial formula and publication policy! The report is now available for free directly on ESPI website. Find out more about space policies, issues and trends in 2019.
On April 6, 2020, the U.S. White House issued an “Executive Order on Encouraging International Support for the Recovery and Use of Space Resources”, tasking the U.S. Secretary of State, to encourage international support for the public and private recovery and use of resources in outer space, consistent with the official U.S. position. ESPI Brief 40 identifies and discusses some of the key considerations raised by this Executive Order and international reactions.
