초록

미 트럼프 행정부는 2018년 5월 24일 상업적 우주활동을 촉진하기 위한 규제개혁방향을 담은 우주정책명령 SPD-2(Space Policy Directive-2)를 발표하고, 뒤이어 6월 18일 우주상황 관리 정책에 관한 행정명령 SPD-3를 발표했다. 이 행정명령은 주요 우주 분야에 대한 개혁조치를 담고 있는데, 이 정책은 2017년 6월 재구성된 국가우주위원회(National Space Council: NSC)가 성안한 개혁 권고안을 대통령이 승인한 것으로 연방정부의 강력한 개혁추진을 위한 가이던스를 제공한다. 상업우주활동개혁정책은 앞서 2017년 12월 18일 발표된 국가안보전략(National Security Strategy)의 큰 틀에서 경제적 번영과 국가안보를 동시에 달성하기 위한 노력으로 이해할 수 있다. 상업적 우주활동을 촉진함으로써 미국의 국익을 달성하고자 하는 미국의 정책과 입법은 우주활동을 규율하는 우주조약을 위반한다는 우려와 논란을 불러일으킬 수 있다. 이에 국제사회는 미국의 상업우주개혁정책에서 노정되는 법적 쟁점에 대한 국제적 논의를 통해 우주기술의 발전과 상업화 진전에 맞는 보편적 국제 규범을 형성하기 위한 노력을 가속화해야 한다.

In order to promote the commercial space activities of the private sector, the Trump Administration announced the commercial space regulatory reforms by issuing the Space Policy Directive-2 (SPD-2) on May 24, 2018, followed by the SPD-3 dealing with a separate issue of the space traffic management on June 18. Both executive orders, based on the recommendations prepared by the National Space Council (NSC) reconstituted in June 2017 and signed by the President, involve regulatory reform policy related to launch services, commercial remote sensing, establishment of one-stop shop office in Commerce Department, radio frequency spectrum, export control, and space traffic management, providing a strong guidance to the Federal Government. The commercial space regulatory reform policy can be seen in broader terms of the National Security Strategy earlier announced on Dec. 18, 2017, and as such, it pursues the economic growth of the U.S. and the national security as well. The U.S. law and policy prioritizing its national interests by promoting commercial space activities may lead to concerns and debate on the potential breach of the provisions of the Outer Space Treaty. Hence, it is worth noting the legal implications as derived from the U.S. space policy and domestic legislation, thereby accelerating international discussion to build on international norms as appropriate to the pr ogress of space technology and space commercialization.
