Space Expansion

[Esternial]

The World Assembly,

NOTING that the world cannot bear the growing population.

BELIEVING that there is need for further expansion or decrease in demographic growth

FURTHER BELIEVING that decreasing demographic growth on a large scale would require the death of thousands of innocent people, therefore only leaving one option and one only.

HEREBY,

INITIATE a joint-nation research into space expansion, in order to construct the first operational 'space station' for people to live one, thus increasing living space for our people to live and decreasing any tension resulting from the high population.

DECLARES that any inhabitant on the 'space station' must abide by it's laws.

PROHIBITS that any nation is to attack this space station or take actions that can be seen as an attack. If such is the case, this nation will be trailed (not attacked) by the WA.

SUGGESTS that this space station would be called 'The Cradle'

SUGGESTS that this station would be armed with the best defensive facilities, preventing attacks ,smuggling or terrorism

GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION # 63

Protection of Outer Space Act
A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.


Category: Environmental

Industry Affected: All Businesses

Proposed by: Stash Kroh

Description: The World Assembly abroad,

ACKNOWLEDGING the importance of maintaining Outer Space as an environment for all nations to explore in the safest manner possible,

UNDERSTANDING that the hazardous accumulation of space debris in recent years is contributed by space-voyaging nations,

CONCERNED that nations may pollute this internationally encompassing environment, as space debris that is uncontrolled will not remain in one area forever and may even gravitate towards celestial bodies or pose a hazard to satellites and astronauts,

DEFINING “Outer Space” as the void which occupies the largely empty areas of the universe outside the atmosphere of any planet, star or other celestial body, where the edge of any celestial body’s atmosphere is understood to be the specific position where a craft would have to travel faster than orbital velocity in order to receive sufficient aerodynamic lift from the atmosphere to support itself.

HEREBY:
1) Prohibits space-voyaging nations from damaging or polluting Outer Space unnecessarily.

2) Further Prohibits any unnatural addition of hazardous debris to a frequented travel route or within dangerous proximity to a celestial body where nations reside.

3) Forbids the intentional atmospheric reentry of any vessel, satellite, or object of non-weaponry purpose, if its reentry presents a substantial and unjustifiable risk to the health of any resident of a nation.

4) Stipulates that all vessels, and residences in Outer Space recycle and reuse waste material to the best of their ability, and dispose of it in a manner that is least likely to cause unnecessary risk.

5) Establishes the Coordination of Space Consortium (C.O.S.C), in order to:
I. Support peaceful scientific research carried out by member states regarding the environmental effects of interstellar travel and Outer Space in general.
II. Safely organize, and coordinate the trajectories and flight paths of space vessels and satellites belonging to nations that are willing to share such vital information.
III. Research and devise new technologies and methodologies to improve waste management systems in Outer Space as well as the longevity of satellites and other space equipment while minimalizng space travel's dependency on disposable space equipment such as rocket stages.

6) Encourages nations to adopt the C.O.S.C’s technological designs or environmental practices if applicable, or otherwise remain outside of Outer Space until their crafts and crew are compliant with its standards.
