试论空间碎片减缓国家机制的构建

The Establishment of National Mechanism on Space Debris Mitigation

空间碎片减缓已经成为国际空间活动中一项国际习惯法规范。联合国外空委于2007年6月通过的《空间碎片减缓指南》,也明确要求会员国或国际组织通过国家机制最大限度地减缓空间碎片。中国在空间碎片减缓的国内立法及管理机制建设方面已经有了一定的进展,但加快中国《空间法》的立法进程和理清空间活动管理机构的职能是构建空间碎片减缓国家机制亟待完善的问题。

Space debris mitigation has become an international custom for international space activities. COPUOS adopted the Guideline on Space Debris Mitigation. The Guideline provides that member states or international organizations should establish a national mechanism to mitigate space debris. China has made progress in legislation on space activities and management system. In order to establish a national mechanism on space debris mitigation, it is essential for China to promote legislation on space activities and specify the duties of management administration.
