As the "First Super" among the top and many strong people, especially the situation on Mars is very unclear, so Merecon did not immediately respond to Tang Chao's speech.

Of course, it may also be because of insufficient time. It takes careful planning to deal with Tang Chao and Tianxia behind him, and you cannot make a decision with just a slap in your head.

But they did not do nothing, but immediately asked the presidential office to issue a statement, indicating that Meriken can be trusted completely, they are very good, and they have made a lot of contributions to the world.

Finally, they also advised some people not to discredit Meriken.

Given the current international...oh, no, the interstellar situation is complicated, so they put the overall situation first for the time being, but they will reserve the right to sue.

This... can almost be regarded as a compromise.

In an uproar outside, the UN afternoon game began.

For the remaining day and a half, they will formulate an effective, binding, international law that can serve as a guiding role when in contact with alien civilizations.

There are space laws in the current human society, and there are many more.

Flying to space is a unique dream of mankind.

In order to maintain this dream, humans have specially formulated some relevant laws, because when humans expand their scope of activities, new self-disciplines are always needed to avoid disorder caused by new freedom.

In order to prevent humans from rushing into space in disorder like a group of wild boars with wings and making this dream a mess, humans always have to set some constraints on themselves.

Starting from the launch of the world's first artificial Earth satellite, Sputnik 1, the United Nations immediately paid attention to it and implemented relevant legislation.

First, the "Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space" was established as an ad hoc sub-organization of the United Nations General Assembly.

Then the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 1962, which contained all the important features of international space law, laying the foundation for the final adoption of the Magna Carta, the Treaty on Outer Space.

The full name of the Treaty on Outer Space is like a light name, quite long, called the Treaty on Principles on Exploration and Utilization of Activities in Internal and Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies.

As the basis of international space law, it is also known as the "Space Constitution", so it basically stipulates 10 basic principles that should be followed in engaged in space activities.

The first is the principle of common interests.

That is, the exploration and utilization of outer space should benefit all countries, regardless of the degree of economic or scientific development.

The second is the principle of free exploration and utilization.

All countries should freely explore and utilize outer space in accordance with international law on the basis of equality and freely enter all areas of celestial bodies.

The third is that you must not take it for yourself.

States shall not take outer space for themselves by making sovereign claims, using, occupying or in any other way.

The fourth is the principle of restricting militarization.

That is, countries cannot place and deploy nuclear weapons, or any other weapons of mass destruction, on orbits of the earth and on celestial bodies.

The fifth is the principle of rescuing astronauts.

In the event of an accident, distress or emergency landing, countries should give them all possible assistance and return them quickly and safely to the launching country.

The sixth is the principle of national responsibility.

Countries should assume international responsibility for their space activities, whether they are conducted by governmental or non-governmental departments.

The seventh is the principle of registering outer space objects.

All countries conducting space activities must inform the Secretary-General of the United Nations about the status, location and results of the activities to the greatest extent possible and practical.

The eighth is the principle of jurisdiction and control over space objects.

That is, the registered country of space objects launched into space still maintains jurisdiction and control over the objects in outer space.

The ninth is the principle of protecting the space environment.

Aerospace activities should avoid harmful pollution from outer space and prevent the introduction of extraterrestrial substances from causing adverse changes in the earth's environment.

The last one is the principle of international cooperation, that is, countries should cooperate and help each other when engaging in outer space activities.

Then, based on these principles, the Outer Space Commission also formulated relevant Rescue Agreements, Responsibility Conventions, Registration Conventions, and Moon Agreements.

These are all abbreviations, and the full name is still the word length of the light title.

In addition, there are the Declaration of Legal Principles for Exploring and Utilizing Outer Space Activities, the Principles that Countries should abide by using artificial Earth satellites for international direct television broadcasts, the Principles for Remote Sensing the Earth from Outer Space, the Principles for the Use of Nuclear Power Sources in Outer Space, the Declaration on International Cooperation in Exploring and Utilizing Outer Space, Promoting the Welfare and Interests of All Countries, and Taking into account the needs of Developing Countries, the Vienna Declaration on Space and Human Development, etc.

but……

Among the above-mentioned space law treaties, only the Outer Space Treaty was ratified by nearly 100 countries and received widespread support from the international community.

There are only a few dozen or dozens of contracted countries, or even just a few.

For example, the Moon Agreement has similar provisions to the Antarctic Treaty, both of which must not be polluted, declared sovereignty, and equality. Part of the research proceeds must be published to all countries, etc.

That is, one is on the earth and the other is next to the earth, and it is also a place that ordinary people cannot access.

But it is this Moon Agreement, which has only a dozen signing countries.

Let's talk about this, no country that has the ability to send the probe to the moon has signed this treaty.

There are enough signatories to the Outer Space Treaty, and all major countries with certain aerospace capabilities have signed them. What is the use of signing? They still do not comply with them when they do not comply.

It calls on countries to cooperate and help in space activities, but for interest, this article is not implemented very well.

It also limits the militarization of space. I will not talk about the research and launch of anti-satellite missiles, but several countries are already playing.

In recent years, Meriken has directly established a space force, which is more blatant than launching anti-satellite missiles from the earth to strike satellites, and clearly does not take the Outer Space Treaty seriously.

International law has been developing for a longer time and is more perfect than international space law, but Merecan can still bypass the United Nations and directly start war against whoever he wants, because its own force is too strong.

The same is true for space law. The United Nations does not have strong strength and does not even have strong binding properties. Its subordinate body, the Outer Space Commission, is even less binding.

But there must be relevant laws.

When one side has an overwhelming advantage, it naturally doesn't have to worry about space operations, but when both sides are evenly matched or even at a disadvantage, they begin to expect space law to be in charge.

Especially now that extraterrestrial civilizations are involved, once the detector is confirmed to be true, humans must consider the contact issue of extraterrestrial civilizations.

At this time, no one wants to leave themselves behind, and they don’t want one party to take over the benefits themselves, so relevant laws must be formulated.

Even if the relevant laws are limited, as long as the other party cannot use force openly to threaten the whole world, and then take over the benefits of aliens.

Just like the United Nations has little effect, it always has some effect, otherwise the foreign war in Merecon will be more unscrupulous.

Secret contact and work efficiency are definitely poor. Once other countries seize the opportunity, there will always be some opportunities to catch up.
