The #SMPAG meeting was concluded this morning, the next days are dedicated, for me, to the use of nuclear power sources #NPS in outer space. With the planned return to the moon, nuclear batteries and even lunar reactors receive more attention again. Participation was seldom that broad before. #UN #COPUOS #STSC #space
Already on Monday, the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee started its 2026 session. This morning, the Space Mission Planning Advisory Group started its meeting. At #SMPAG, Space Agencies meet and discuss planetary defence, i. e. how to react in case a Near-Earth Object threatens to hit our planet.

Expandir o Legado Global

O texto sugere preservar a ISS como um Laboratório Global de pesquisa, usando como núcleo de ancoragem para expandir a estrutura e garantir sua longevidade. O financiamento seria universalizado através de Parcerias Privadas e Fundo da ONU para custear a expansão e estabilidade.

Auf nach Bremen zur #SpaceTechExpo. Heute ein Panel zum EU Space Act, morgen dann der Commercial Space Law Workshop, bei dem ich auf die Diskussionen zu Weltraumverkehrskoordinierung und -koordination bei den diesjährigen #COPUOS-Sitzungen zurückblicke.
Erstmal aber Zeitung lesen, die neue Ausgabe #SuW liegt ja schon zu Hause.

Heute endet die diesjährige Sitzung des Rechtsunterausschuss des UN-Weltraumausschusses. In den letzten zwei Wochen wurde in Wien viel diskutiert und intensiv verhandelt, unter anderem der von DEU initiierte Vorschlag eine "Study Group on legal and policy aspects of space traffic" einzurichten. Es war mir eine Ehre und eine Freude, daran mitzuwirken.

@tness This is a very populistic article lacking even a basic reading and analysis of the international treaties and disregarding the work currently undertaken by the international community at the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Space in Vienna.

Here is a run-down on Dark & Quiet Skies activities at the recent UN COPUOS Science & Technology Subcommittee meeting from @iau_cps: https://cps.iau.org/news/un-meeting-features-satellite-impact-on-astronomy/

"The discussion included remarks on the need to find balanced solutions, the urgent need for nations to support research on mitigations, considerations on the cultural heritage of the night sky, and the importance of space sustainability discussions within international bodies."

Meanwhile, although I never imagined I would agree with the government of #Iran about much, here we are. "Another critical consequence of the unchecked expansion of mega-constellations is light pollution."
