[Res.] Resolution on Orbital Safety
#8

Following the comments of the many delegates, the Sallodesian presents a new draft of this resolution. The Sallodesian delegation has also reconsidered its stance on the inclusion of Pacifica's orbit as included into Pacifica's environment and hereby voices its support for the creation of a Sub-Committee of Space Regulations. Believing that such a sub-committee could in the long term also encompass future legislation concerning affairs in space.

Assembly of the World Forum
Distr.: General
1 August 2022


Resolution 17 adopted by the Assembly on DD Month YYYY
Resolution on Orbital Safety
 
Section A — Purpose
  1. The purpose of this resolution is the prevention of additional space debris entering Pacifica's orbit and assistance in the elimination of existing space debris.
  2. The World Forum recognizes the hazardous dangers created by space debris orbiting Pacifica which pose an existential threat to sustainable spaceflight.
  3. This resolutions also is binding by nature to ensure the reduction of additional space debris by all member states to safeguard sustainable spaceflight.
Section B — Definitions
  1. Space debris is defined as a defunct human-made object in space – primarily in Pacifica orbit, which no longer serves a useful function – creating a collision hazard for orbiting spacecraft in intersecting orbits.
  2. A spacecraft is any type of manned or unmanned aerospace vessel with the intention of orbital or sub-orbital spaceflight.
    1. Orbital spaceflight is defined as spaceflight in which a spacecraft reaches escape velocity or a trajectory that complete at least one orbital revolution.
    2. Sub-orbital spaceflight is defined as spaceflight in which a spacecraft reaches outer spaces, but its trajectory is unable to prevent the completion of one orbital revolution or escape velocity.
  3. Space debris elimination programs are any projects with the goal to eliminate existing space debris.
Section C — Implementation
  1. The creation of a Sub-Committee for Space Regulations, abbreviated SRE, under the Committee for Science & Education and the Committee for Economy to supervise the ongoing campaign against space debris.
  2. All members of the World Forum shall limit the designed creation of space debris through the separation of a spacecraft's components for each spaceflight. Hence spacecraft designs must pass technical specifications made by the Sub-Committee for Space Regulations.
  3. All members of the World Forums shall enforce the performance of orbital manoeuvres that put spacecraft reaching a planned nonfunctional state and separated components on sub-orbital trajectories.
  4. Members of the World Forum – and their constituent companies – may apply for funding for space debris elimination programs at the Sub-Committee for Space Regulations.
