Description:
|
In the first part, Philippe Clerc describes the role played by the Law to build up the French Space Policy though the establishment of CNES, the French space agency. The second part of the book details the legal background, the law-making process among parliament government, industry, experts and CNES, and the current functioning of the French Space Operation Act of 2008 as a legal instrument designed to regulate and promote the private space entrepreneurship under its jurisdiction. The book contains the whole legislation in the original French with an English translation, as well as unpublished working documents, including a comparison list of usual space law definitions and a table of concordance on different technical provisions between different FSOA texts and several international standards on space.
