Recenzje

'Who Owns Outer Space? The question sounds simple, and one might look for a simple answer. But geopolitical aspects as well as the increase of commercialisation of space request serious evaluations and comprehensive positions. By providing all of this, the book is of outstanding importance for the development of sustainability in space.' Johann-Dietrich 'Jan' Wörner, former Director General of the European Space Agency
