Handbook for New Actors in Space

[Phi for All]

I've been wanting to share this for a while now. Our friends at Secure World Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to promoting the peaceful use of outer space, have prepared a fantastic document for those who want to know more about current human activity in our nearby space.

SWF developed the Handbook for New Actors in Space, which is intended to provide nations, established satellite operators, start-up companies, universities, and other space actors with a broad overview of the fundamental principles, laws, norms, and best practices for peaceful, safe, and responsible activities in space.

It's a non-partisan, non-profit, global perspective to give participants and observers an informed view of Earth's outer space situation. You can download a free PDF copy from the SWF website here. Your information is private. You can put "ScienceForums.net" for your affiliation, if you like.

Feel free to share this as well. It's important to know what's going on over our heads, as well as keeping our orbital paths clear of debris, and space travel as safe as we can make it.
