Space tourism, satellite use, military scope or extra-terrestrial resource extraction: space law is increasingly shaping national and international interests.

In clear diction and with illustrations and supporting graphics, Hobe presents all relevant legal aspects of space use on the basis of international space law and all relevant national space legislations.
