--- Quote from: coppercone2 on September 05, 2019, 02:22:54 am ---are they gonna have to pay NORAD for all the extra shit they put up there? should there be a rule against American companies using foreign nation to launch satellites under their control? should a space control cabal be formed?

--- End quote ---

ESA should certainly charge them for the fuel used and reduction in operational life of Aeolus.
coppercone2:
are satellite related lawsuits precedented?


I mean, for stuff that happens in space, not dishnet related scammers as usual/illegal tv, or patent crap. I mean like collisions, occupation of orbital path, interference

can this lead to lesser nations becoming some kind of satellite launch havens since they will reject litigation? Kind of like Caymen islands, Panama, Switzerland, Ireland being tech/financial hubs



Many states have adopted national space legislation, including Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, France, Germany, Japan, Kazakhstan, the Netherlands, Norway, the Republic of Korea, Russia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and the United States.4 Several are detailed below, in order to demonstrate the common approach to absolute versus fault-based liability and state liability versus corporate liability.

Is north korea a Chinese satellite haven?

I don't think it would take too much to build a launch pad some where? I feel like south/middle america can make bank if they just decide to have lax space laws and are in dire straits already. Their not exactly horrible places to live for space engineers.

 Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Sao Tome & Principe, Gabon, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda, Kenya, Somalia, Maldives, Indonesia and Kiribati. All equatorial .

Somalia, Kenya, Congo and Uganga would probably be destabilized by the CIA if they tried it. No idea what Gabon or Sao Tome or Kiribati are. shady Nigerian satilite launch site possible? can this fix africa?

Bankrupt OneWeb seeks license for 48,000 satellites, even more than SpaceX:

I think all of them should pay "insurance", provide specs and keep up to date current info about satellites to some international authority, in case they declare themself "not profitable" as many startups do, and then just disappear.
At least someone should be able to manage their crap on orbit, to avoid collisions and making huge amount of debris.
"Oh sorry our "solar roadways" tons of satellites for better internet idea didnt worked", and whole humanity watch flying junk that will close access to space for several generations.
