Yes, exactly. How does the US FCC become the world’s space regulator? Another question: are non-US satellites & space-things also regulated by the US FCC? How is the regulation of ‘space’ regulated in general? 🤔

The management of common pool resources depends crucially on the existence and effectiveness of the #rules and institutions to govern their use.
For #space activities, this translates into human activities potentially littering Earth’s orbits beyond sustainable limits, creating #SpaceDebris that could reduce the value of space activities by increasing the risk of damaging collisions 💥 and requiring mitigation actions. https://www.oecd.org/content/dam/oecd/en/publications/reports/2020/04/space-sustainability_a2d8e17f/a339de43-en.pdf

From a #commercial aspect, we want the #government 🏢 to #declare what the #standards are and then get out of the way.

What you want to avoid is #regulation that locks in a specific set of technologies 🧰 as opposed to expectations for #performances of behavior.

If #policy questions “linger” too long, investors will be scared off, stymying* the company’s growth.

The present “#piecemeal, fragmented licensing approach” needs to be #streamlined. Technology’s #speed and regulation’s #slowness causes friction https://aerospace.csis.org/the-private-sectors-assessment-of-u-s-space-policy-and-law
