dc.description.abstractThe environment of the outer space has no friction so it allows stars, planet and moons to move freely along ideal gravitational trajectories. As against the popular belief, a person exposed to space would not explode, freeze to death or die from boiling blood as we now have human beings living in the outer space and not exposed to any imminent danger due to scientific research on how to live a normal life when in outer space. The essence of this paper is not to examine the science of space but how outer space became a legal subject. Due to space activities and exploitation that has affected every facet of human existence, several Laws, Treaties; Conventions have been put in place to regulate the activities of man on space. This paper will focus on space exploration, its effect on Earth, some Laws regulating human activities in outer space and its implications. This paper will focus on the following legal regimes on Outer Space. 1. Treaty banning Nuclear weapon Tests in the Atmosphere, in outer space and under water often called the partial test ban treaty or Nuclear Test Ban Treaty of 1963 2. Outer Space Treaty of 1967. 3. Convention on international Liability for Damaged caused by space objects 1972 4. Convention on Registration of objects launched into outer space (1975) 5. Agreement on the rescue of Astronauts, the return of Astronauts and the return of objects launched into outer space 1968 6 Agreement Governing the Activities of States on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies 1979
