Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze the environmental impact of space exploration, in particular on the ineffectiveness of international legislation, which regulates activities and space itself, on the optics to curb environmental damage and the threat of loss of control of objects in space, by the effigy of the concrete case of the Chinese space station Tiangong-1, in order to create an observation parameter, capable of clarifying to the reader the proposal about the ineffectiveness of regulation and the need to make changes in the legislative structure, about the normative transcendence necessary for space. In the end, he proposed a codification through the ethics of the use and exploration of space, that his base of principles would build a normative framework for changes in human conduct as well as for technological development that had changed the experience of space. Bringing a different approach from those commonly used, even though in its construction it follows the conventional methodological characteristics, it seeks to bring a communicative writing with reader because it is a theoretical work.
