About the course
Legal rules, regulations and norms directly shape what an operator may do in orbit. They decide who is liable after a collision, which frequencies a satellite may use and how far a response may go in a contested environment.
This course translates the legal framework into operational terms. You learn your responsibilities, the constraints on your operations and the compliance requirements that apply to military, governmental and commercial missions.

- Space operators and mission control personnel
- Mission planners and space operations officers
- Legal advisors new to the space domain
