Abstract
The research paper tends to explore the development of space law, dating back from the year of 1957 to contemporary developments. It seeks to explore the ill effects of rapid militarization and commercialization of space by the nations and potential solutions that can help us undo the impact of harms caused. The paper also highlights the importance of stringent regulatory framework to ensure progress without environmental hindrances. Various gray areas in the realm of space laws alongside the sociological and ethical considerations to be kept in mind while drafting and codifying the laws have been stated to shed a light upon various arguments about the use of space for well being of mankind.
