The General Assembly,

Recognizing the need for international cooperation in outer space, as the shared fabric of the universe that binds all known life, a medium which is becoming increasingly reachable for developing life,

Motivated by a desire to cooperate on preserving access to, and promoting research of, this medium, through international partnership,

Pursuing collaboration on space research and exploration under the framework of national sovereignty, respecting the internal affairs of member nations while promoting cooperation that will prove beneficial to the World Assembly at large,

Hereby defines as follows:

1. Outer Space: The all-encompassing expanse of vacuum in between celestial objects, including but not limited to stars, planetary bodies, and nebulae.

2. Spacecraft: A flight-capable vehicle operated within outer space by a civilization.

3. Civilian Spacecraft: A spacecraft that is owned or operated for non-military use.

Hereby enacts as follows:

1. The Space Transport and Astronomical Research (STAR) Administration is hereby established with the following directives:

   1. Promoting international research and understanding of outer space, in the interest of uninvasive international cooperation and for the benefit of member nations.

   2. Publishing credible research findings regarding aeronautical travel and outer space phenomena, in cases where such research benefits the international community.

   3. Promoting technology sharing, with consent of any involved parties, to expedite safe, sustainable space travel in developing member nations.

   4. Collaborating with member nations and any further programs established by the General Assembly as needed to minimize internationally relevant risks deriving from spacefaring operations.

2. Member nations are encouraged to follow any applicable guidelines established by the STAR Administration on the topic of inspecting civilian spacecraft, for the purposes of verifying operational, mechanical, and structural soundness, for the purposes of reducing casualties.

   1. Member nations are encouraged to ensure that their spacecraft can last for the whole mission that they will be used for.

   2. Member nations are encouraged to ensure that their spacecraft undergo extensive structural tests and extensive mechanical tests for the purposes of preventing fuel and chemical leakages, as well as averting other dangerous issues that may arise.

3. Member nations, when operating in shared terrestrial orbits, are highly encouraged to coordinate with the STAR Administration to the extent needed to avoid, or reduce to the fullest, the risk of unintended collision between spacecraft, satellites, and other structures.

   1. For the purpose of resolving emergency situations, member nations are encouraged to share communication channels and contact procedures for civilian spacecraft operating in the same terrestrial orbits.

4. The STAR Administration shall respect the sovereignty of all member states regarding exploration, studying, and missions into outer space.

   1. The STAR Administration shall have zero authority to pass discipline onto nations.
