Beyond Borders: Crafting a Cosmic Jurisprudence for Space Exploration

Abstract

This article explores the intersection of philosophical and social concepts with space law, examining their practical implications and relevance to contemporary challenges in space activities. The narrative begins by emphasizing the significance of realization in cultural execution, underscoring the importance of balance and moderation as cultural values. The discourse then transitions to the realm of space law, posing critical questions about the goals, decision-making processes, and the overall horizon of space exploration. The text evaluates the existence and impact of “soft” and “hard” laws, asserting that the effectiveness of laws lies in their impact on opportunity horizons. The role of a space lawyer is contemplated, focusing on the bridging of the gap between present realities and aspirational futures guided by relevant mythologies and ideologies. The narrative concludes with a call for a psychological understanding to accompany legal structures, asserting that laws for space activities must align with foundational cultural elements to be effective. The emphasis of the article’s exploration of space law within the broader context of philosophy and culture, calls for the need of an interdisciplinary approach to address the complexities of space activities.
