The Space Court Law Library
Work on the Space Court Law Library brings together scholars and students from around the world to collaborate on a range of space law research projects. Together these projects form a comprehensive and accessible online space law reference library. It will ultimately be home to the most complete repository of primary source legal documents related to national and international space law, both private and public.
Public access to the online library currently requires a subscription.
