| Description: | This document presents a novel framework from the study (Murakami et al., 2019) to address the challenges of STM, focusing on accurate data sharing, direct communication, and international collaboration. Furthermore, this report examines the evolution of international space law and policy and identifies an urgent need for harmonization from the establishment of international treaties to the emergence of national legislations. The everevolving challenges of space debris, STM, and Space Situational Awareness (SSA) need future policy adaptations by nations. The report underscores the importance of crafting and enforcing effective national laws and policies to enhance global space governance under the proposed international STM framework. The proposed framework is expected to act as a reference point in subsequent debates around the conceptualization and implementation of international STM. Overall, this report is a testament to the collaborative efforts of an international and interdisciplinary team, representing a collective vision to ensure that space remains secure and sustainable for all. |
