Introduction
Space law plays a crucial role in governing the use, exploration, and regulation of satellites in outer space. With the increasing number of satellites being launched into orbit for various purposes, it is essential to understand the impact of space law on satellite governance. This thesis aims to explore the relationship between space law and satellite governance, and how it influences the way satellites are managed and controlled in outer space.
