New rules for space activity: permits, satellite registry, and public safety
The act introduces clear rules for companies and institutions launching objects into space, ensuring the safety of people and the environment on Earth. The new regulations establish mandatory insurance for satellite operators and procedures for handling space debris found on Polish territory.
Key points
Permits and control: Any commercial attempt to launch, operate, or control a space object requires official permission from the Polish Space Agency (POLSA).
Strict liability for damages: Satellite operators are fully liable for any damage caused on Earth's surface or to aircraft in flight, with no possibility of excluding this liability.
Mandatory insurance: Space operators must secure third-party liability insurance of up to EUR 60 million (except for scientific, educational, and military projects).
National Registry: A public registry of all Polish space objects will be established and maintained by POLSA.
Space debris procedure: Anyone who finds a suspected piece of space debris must immediately notify the Police and refrain from moving it.
Heavy fines: Conducting space activities without a permit can result in severe financial penalties based on average national wages.
