Space Diplomacy

Space Diplomacy refers to the practice of managing international relations and negotiations concerning activities and policies related to outer space. This includes collaboration between countries on space exploration, satellite communications, space science, and the use of space resources. Space diplomacy aims to establish frameworks for peaceful coexistence, conflict resolution, and cooperative agreements to prevent the militarization of space and address shared challenges such as space debris and planetary defense. Central to space diplomacy are treaties and agreements, such as the Outer Space Treaty of 1967, which lays the groundwork for the responsible use of outer space. As more nations and private entities engage in space activities, the significance of effective space diplomacy has grown to ensure that space remains a domain for peaceful exploration and mutual benefit.
