The Routledge Handbook of Commercial Space Law offers a comprehensive exploration of the transformations and adaptations occurring within the diverse stakeholder community engaged in outer space activities. The interplay between NewSpace, traditional aerospace industries, and non-traditional space-related technologies is propelling market shifts that will shape state practices, traditionally dominated by government involvement.
