Outer Space Resources in Efficient and Equitable Use: New Frontiers for Old Principles
提出通过建立国际公约,对物理空间资源和电磁频谱资源进行可分割、无限期的用户权利自由贸易,并设立责任规则和空间管理当局,以实现资源的高效与公平利用。
A regime for managing the two space resources, the physical space resources and the electromagnetic spectrum was suggested. To achieve efficiency in an international convention establishing intra- and international free trade in divisible, indefinite user rights to the complete resources should be agreed upon. A legal convention on the definition and enforcement of liability rules is also crucial for efficiency. An authority to manage space resources is needed only for those activities that interfere with a large number of other activities. The creation of an international space condominium to auction user rights to the two resources was suggested to achieve equity.
