United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA)

The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) is a division of the UN dedicated to promoting international cooperation in space activities. Its goal is to ensure space is used peacefully and responsibly—helping countries access space technologies, develop rules for space ventures, and prevent conflicts or harmful debris in orbit. UNOOSA also manages the registration of space objects and encourages sustainable use of outer space for scientific research, communication, and navigation, benefiting all humanity.
