A Study on the Law of War and Space Law This article suggests that for purposes of analysis under the law of war, space combat will be sui generis-fundamentally different from combat in terrestrial airspace. I examine the intersection of two subsets of public international law as they bear on space warfare: the law of war and the law of outer space. This article consider international law applicable to space warfare and examines the five multilateral space treaties comprising the corpus juris spatialis, and highlights key passages of relevance to space warfare. We applies the legal regime governing international armed conflicts to space warfare.
